thank you simon(HKE46BOY) for all your help with getting my new wheels. tires are toyo r888 in 255/35 315/30. here are a few quick pics. please excuse the sidewalk chalk in my driveway from my 3yr old

 

as you can see i never changed the date on my camera as well

 

sweet!!!!!!
how is the ride quality?

 

as i said before! really nice looks hot!

 

Looks great! Those are the C14? I am about to order a set in black myself for track use.

Looks good on your car Mike, did you lowered your car to "Euro" spec?

 

You get them anodized or powder coated. My anodized set turned purple after a year ... not that I care ... there track wheels

 

my car was lowered by the previous owner but i never found out if it was euro spec or not. with 19's i could not squeeze my finger in b/w the rear tire and car

 

ride quality is very good. some people say the toyo's are very noisy on the road but it hasnt been that bad. although i didnt lose a lot of weight b/c the toyo's are so heavy. 18's just seem to make the car even more nimble than what it was before. i'll get a real feel next week as i have 2 DE's within the same week at road atlanta

 

They will sound really loud after the track day. Mine sounded like bad wheel bearings, it was so loud. The grip is astounding that they produce with this car, you will be very happy.

They do take a few sessions to break in though so keep that in mind. I spun in my second session in a place that I never thought a car could spin, so be careful the first few sessions.

If your track is high speed, you may also get a bit of a wiggle under braking from the rear. You can see the wiggle at the 2:27 mark in my last track video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=2cMuDDjfU34 The wiggle will go away as the tread wears down a bit.

 

You will love the R888 over the RA-1. The tire comes to you through the session as opposed to the RA-1 which is only good first 3-4 laps. The black looks great.

 

Wheels look great and black is the way to go.

 

Looks hardcore with these Black CCWs'.

 

Looks nice Jenks! You know that wasn't your kid with the chalk. You're trying to recapture your youth playing hopscotch...

If weather holds out I will be with camera in tow for the DE event. I am not in it AGAIN. I need to get it together.

 

Like Rmag stated, they will slowly turn purple if you use them on the track. My fronts are now getting closer to silver. "kinda groovy"
