The wife would own everything else in the divorce if I was even close to having this many different sets of wheels.

I am out of space in my storage room or I would probably have more. I currently have 4 sets: Stock, All-season, Track, AutoX.

what are these? (I like them. looking to swapout my R98's to go with a 16" setup. Something a tad bit lighter than the R98's and current RFT's).

We're very different...

I had the S-lights, then went with a Kazera KZ-V because they are pretty light and aren't ugly.... Now they are really dirty, and the clear coat is shot. But they're still on the car....

Gnatster: you know that i feel your pain! thankfully, i too, don't need snow tires. i think one nice set of street wheels, and three sets of track wheels/tires (two dry and one rain/intermediate) is just about right. i still love the first set of street wheels, so track evolution is the only thing remaining. i think that i have that sorted out.
