Tire Rack comes through again.

A big to Alex and Tire Rack. Alex was very patient with me over a 3 week period. Answered all questions concerning tire choice and BBK clearance. Spent all my allowance for the rest of the year, but got everything I wanted/needed. Ordered yesterday afternoon and got them today.
Also a to Bean. Bought his SSR's - fast shipping and wheels exactly as described. A good experience all around.

what rubber did you get to wrap those SSR's? the light weight wheels will make you think that you rebuilt your suspension. the difference on my car was amazing. enjoy.

Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec 215/45ZR17. May not run them this fall - depends on solving my clutch problems. Have a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position 215/45R17 on Motegi SP10 17x7 for fall and winter.

On a side note, I priced center caps for the SSR's - around $200 new.
