I have been thinking about eventually getting some diamond racing wheels and throwing some slicks on them. We will see if that ever happens though.

that picture of the rim comparison never ceases to amaze me. seriously when is that gonna be on the road causing mayhem?

Dan_s_young 03-18-08 11:20 PM

Not soon enough. Still the same issues are plaguing me, things that aren't extremely difficult just set backs and minimal time to work them out at this point.

I have the stock "+" wheels with Yokohama Avid T4 performance

j_tso 03-18-08 11:48 PM

^same here. They're decent all season tires, not great though.

Keeble 03-19-08 12:20 AM

im using stock + wheels, and getting a set of 205/50R13 Toyo Proxes R888's or R1R's can't member which

81gen1 03-19-08 12:33 AM

i use konig rewinds with Zexius 205/50's, and limited 14's with toyo spectrums.

bugman1973 03-19-08 02:01 AM

trying to change my bolt pattern so i can put 17X6.5 Konig feathers rear will be wrapped in 245 or 255 and the front will be wrapped in 225 i think for when i get it done at least. i just like the feathers in the bronze with the color my car is i think they kind of go together. when the wide body gets done the wheels will be even larger.

for 205's that just doesnt sound right. i had 205 all the way around and had no problem rubbing at all. even in really tight corners or big bumps.

The one with the stock lug pattern has either 14" 83 LE wheels with 195/60-14 Falken ziex ze 512 (very good all season) or stock plus wheels with 205/60-13 sumitomo HTR 200's.
The turbo FB is running a set of 15" FC Vert wheels with 205/50-15 falken azenis rt 615's...
