i'm okay with any of these choices as long as it means getting new tires.

Those are nice but the OZ beats them out. Same weight with an extra half inch width, with the slightly better offset.

I do to but I'm not willing to give my first born for them.

Their looks are the only thing stopping me. I just find them to be very unattractive.

Do it. That's my favorite style for this car.

New tires is the reason I'm buying wheels. I need summer tires, and I'd like the convenience of not having to swap tires and rims every season. I am kind of obsessive so I like to get what will be the best of what I can get which is why I'm not just getting some guys second hand wheels for cheap.

check out some of the rotas on subydude.com if you havn't already. They are all replicas of higher priced yokohomas/enkeis/volks yet they are still structuraly sound. Im wanting to go with the g-forces in bronze when I get the money.

[NikFu S.]

Subydude rapes for shipping.

Did you make a decision on the wheels? what tires are you choosing?

[NikFu S.]

I chose the OZ with 245/40R17 Kumho Ecstas.

[jman050]

good choice now where are the pics ....oh and what type of kumho ecsta, there are like 8-10 different choices. I went with the MX a couple weeks ago and couldnt be happier.

[NikFu S.]

haven't ordered them yet.
I was looking at the MX originally but I'm trying to decide if it's worth paying extra for it over the SPT. I drive seldomly and my suspension is mushy so tread life and grip mean little to me right now. Weather performance is not an issue. I basically just need tires that don't suck.

If your not looking for the best possible grip i wouldnt worry about the MX . I only bought them because im going with Konis this summer and wanted great dry traction but i am sacrificing some treadlife and wet weather traction.

I ordered the wheels.

Had a little scare because my card was capped at $1500 per day, but a quick trip to the bank and they increased it.

Wheels will be arriving just in time for +50 degree weather.

Nikfu,

How long does shipping take? Do you know how the wheels and tires weigh?

Excellent! I would have chosen those too. Good luck and show some pics with them on.

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD


Shipping was fast. How fast? ASAFSDFAST.

Took 3 business days exactly, minuns the time confirming that I really wanted that tire size and getting my card denied because the cap was too low, which I raised the same day.

I'll weigh them alongside my blizzaks with stock rims which should be pretty soon if I get off my hind quarters. Just got home and I'm tireds.

[NikFu S.]

According to my digital scale I weigh 140, and me holding the wheel weighs 184, so I guess these wheels are 44lbs.

Man are they pretty. I'm afraid to put them on because my car is dirty. :/

[Crazy_pilot]

Niiiiiiiiiice. That was fast shipping. 4 days? Wow. Who did you order from?
