lost traction at the track and the rear end swung out on me. stupid move on my part but you live and learn.
should get more than 5k lol. lots of reviews giving 10-18k out of theirs and i only drive 5 miles combined to work a day. should get more than a year out of them, easy

the wife wasnt goin for it lol. its all good. i really like these wheels as well so im still good with the outcome

Sweet. Well a full report on how you dig them will be necessary.

J/K. But quite curious to hear how you like them at the track. And you should have a new personal best as well.

i damn well better lol. i couldnt even dip into the 14's with the shitty nexen tires i have mounted at the moment.

I did NOT like these tires. Really not as grippy as you would think, no grip in the rain, no grip in the cold or on any type of sand, gravel or snow. NT555 is a good tire for warmer weather and is what I replaced mine with.

Wouldn't be surprised if you ran into more walls with those. :ahhhhh:Khumo Ecstas are maybe just a hair better.

Get those NT05's warm and you will love them.

That's a insane amount of power, he can't keep traction in the beginning! Do you know what width tires he has, that car is a monster!

The are 285's

 

[Ccaruolo]

what made you decide on the extreme staggered 255 in front and 315 in the rear? why not get a bigger tire up front as well?
