kuhmo's aren't bad.. and they certainly take heat cycles better than the Falkens..

I really like the hankook.. but they aren't available in a 275/40


$187/wheel

What's the drop dead date for that price on the wheels? Also I'm assuming that's in any color? If not can you get bronze?

Yeah the Kuhmos have the softer shoulder and will serve multiple duties well. Though I really do wish they made the RS-2's in wider sizes. I may have to bug our Kuhmo rep at work to see if they are thinking about expanding their sizes, just in case.

I waited trying to find one used but not many sell theirs. I would just go to TurboGoods locally and buy a new one from them. No shipping that way and you can pick it up that day 355. Plus if you buy one used most likely you will have to buy new flanges or the ones you will receive will be warped.

Snow + the Jetta = first winter in a front drive car, and rather hard to readjust after driving nothing but rear drives before.

Hey all,

Just found this FW thread via the RX7 club on Facebook. Didn't know there were this many RX-7 guys around here. I've only seen about 2 FC's and 1 FB here. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. Also, I'm the new owner of a 10AE that most of you will know. It used to belong to Woody from Jspeed.

Chuck,

Can you get me a price for FN01R-C's in 17x8+35 and 17x9+35? Oh, and bronze in colour. Thanks.

Guy42,

Yes, I have an LS1 in my 10AE right now. Is it running? Not yet, DigitalSolo and I have to do a few more things and it will fire.

It would be crazy right about now, but I wouldn't drive it in the snow. Thinking about it...I won't even drive it in the rain. It will have over 400rwhp and close to 400rwtq, so yeah, I think it may be a little hard to handle with rain. But, I digress... I used to have an 85 Celica for winter DD duty, but that has been passed to my former weekend car. My modded GTP.
