What wheels are those and what size tire. Also are you stock height or dropped. I'm looking at the Drag Dr-9 in 17 or 18 inch and wanted to know what tire size fits best with stock height. I also have the the same blue but a white top so I was going to go with a gray wheels instead of black. Thanks

I've only had them for a week so I can't say too much about them. The ride has been quiet and very smooth, much better than my old faulken 512s. The grip is very good in the corners that I have taken spiritedly, but I wasn't really trying to find the limits on them since they still had the yellow line around them from the factory.

In case you didn't know, they're assymetrical, not directonal. The tread patterns confused me for about 15 minutes, but they're on right. You'll see what I mean... I don't know why it's done the way that it is.

I'm on BC Racing coilovers and have them almost as low as they can go. Camber in the front is a little more than -2 degrees and -1.5 in the back. I'm hoping to get it corner balanced sometime this summer
