I have been trying to decide on wheels and tires for some time now and your previous posts have lead me into a direction that I am very happy with. I was originally going to go with 17's but with the rougher ride and more problems I elected to go with the safe bet, 16's. I also needed your help with tire size and once again HAN was there. I decided to go with YOKO spec2 205/45's, awesome tire IMO. Exactaly the side wall profile I was going for. So I just wanted to post some pics for everyone to view. thanks again for your help.J

Those wheels look really good. Now, you just need a good drop to eliminate that large fender gap.

 

yeah, i agree....great look....that wheel well has to go....better for performance as well as looks

 

looks good man give it nice clean drop and u are on your way!

 

thanks for the posts and also glad you like them. The ride is comparable to the Kumho's I had with the stock alloys. Although cornering and overall stability is greatly improved. Also these tires are excellent in the rain !
I agree with all three posts just waiting on some funds for the drop...Also still debating whether to go with tein S+ kyb agx's or tein basic xovers. It seems to me that the price is equal either way. If you had these options or any others which one would you go with? I can't imagine that springs and struts would be better than xovers but let me know. Also didn't know if you guys shop with sportscompactonline.com but they have 75 off damping packages including tein, end up roughly paying about 650.(this is why I am torn between the two)

Thanks again for the posts

 

If you don't mind a relatively to very stiff ride, coilovers are great for handling and the adjustability in ride height they offer is really nice. The Tein basic kit is very nice. Just make sure you invest in the proper camber kits as well.

 

thanks Schmoo
I have looked into this issue and have desided on the omni power for the fronts or skunk 2, omni cheaper however. What is the best IYO?

 

Omnipower is the same as skunk2...they copied the design.

 

thanks..man, capitalism is great...consumer receives lowest prices...LOVE IT!

 

yeah the rims look awsome. nice color and form. good choice. but yeah i have to agree with the others. you just lower it about 2inches or so. then it will look really good and handle better.
