Wheels$tires!

Post by Gim67 »

Hey! Has anyone done a wheel/tire upgrade. Any idea what the max tire width would be for 17"rims? I've been told 235/45. What have you guys heard/done?

I've got 18 inch Enkei's with 225/40ZR/18 Nitto Tires. The handling and ride is twice as good. The Nitto Tires are also quiet too there is hardly any noise. Especially on hot days. check this site out if your interested http://www.tires.com

I'm not so lucky. I ordered 18" Enkei's and it's been over a week so I checked my checking account tonight, it's still all there even though I got a e-mail saying my order was complete. Maybe I'll have better luck with the Eibach sport springs, or the Injen CAI.

Happy day! I was pleasantly suprised when I got home from work last night and my wheels were waiting for me! I spent the better part of the night putting them on. And they look SWEET!

Finally some pic's. I spent almost 2 hours washing it yesterday, but wouldn't ya know it, it rained last night so the car is a little spotty.
