those tires are Yokohama Advan A032R

I have them on the front in the 2nd pic and I have set of plastic kuhmo's 712's or something like as my drift tires.

cuase all they do is break loose so I use them from drifting and use good tires up front to help with control.

once my new wheels come from japan I will be using
Advan A048r (m) tires all around.

Yo,


UniqueTII: Don't worry about it, and stop calling me Ken! It's /Kevin/, KEVIN dammit! *snicker*

And yeah, I wouldn't call my car slow, but it ain't exactly blindingly quick. Ya need a one of those snail thingies you guys are so fond of. *grin*

I like my rims, but I'd take 87GTR's because they are WAY easier to clean. I can't suitably describe how much of a PITA it is to clean my rims.

I don't like using the factory fake plastic wheel covers and fake lugnuts because...well...they're /fake/. My car ain't about fakeness. I painted the front dust covers and rear nuts black, and went with the black lug nuts. I think it looks pretty coolio.

Ideally, I'd like to get some Volk TE37's in 16 x 7, in white. I love those rims, and I don't care if people think they are "overplayed." I dig 'em something fierce. They're just a wee bit expensive. And nope, I don't want 17's.
