And they have the raised white letters no less!

 

just realized the 2nd link says sold out and will not be getting any more. really hate these are getting scarce. guess i need to get my 15" enki's repaired. or just break down and get a set of konig rewinds.

 

Yep, Cooper stopped making the RWL tires I have in 13". Its getting real hard to
find 13" tires in 205/60 series anymore, much less with RWL. I'm thinking of getting
the Konig rewinds in 15 inch for some more serious rubber to play on and keep the
13" waffles for dressup with the Cooper COBRA RWL on them.

 

Michael I'd be interested to learn how those things handle and perform once you get a few miles on them.

 

These guys claim to have Sumis in 205/60R13 size.

I have been thinking about some 15 Rewinds too. I finally got the 13x6 Episilon mesh knock offs on the car with the Sumi 205/60s and really like the look. Even Ray said they looked good on my car, but his standards for my car are much lower than his own car. I have been shopping around to replace 205/60R13s and it is drying up. I even checked a bunch of manufacturer sites and they don't even list this size being manufactured with their current product lines.

I have a set of good Toyo 185/70R13s on stock wheels. I am thinking about swaping them on to the 13x6 meshies and see how they look. The offset on the meshies pushes the wheels out a little more than stock. So the look may stay similiar, but a with a smaller contact area.

 

Next we will see Mike sporting the hella-flush look popular with the drifting crowd.

 

I don't know what a "hella-flush look" is, but I don't think if was meant as a compliment.

 

arrived this morning. will be a while before i get them mounted as the ones on the car still have some miles left on them. just felt the need to go ahead and get them as this particular size is starting to slowly disappear.

 

Definitely not. I couldn't find any good pics of a 1st gen being "mad tyte hella flush,
yo!" but I found plenty of 2nd gens. Heres an example with crazy camber, over size
wheels with too small tires stretched on to the rim. Usualy involves rolling the
fenders to get clearance and avoiding all bumps while driving.

Apology in advance if some 2nd gen owners get offended because their cars
resemble my comments.

 

Tim, you are starting to offend indiscrimantly. Remind you of anyone we know and love?
