Cool

I have finally gotten around to buying some tires for the wheels I purchased around two months ago. ADR wheels that I got on eBay for $250 total, couldn't resist. They are 17x7.5 with a 40mm offset.



Purchased tires at my local Discount Tire after searching the Interent for the best deal for over a month. I got Nitto Extreme NT 450's in 215/45zr17 for $92 each each including mounting, high speed balancing, and valve stems. Couldn't beat it.



Now I just have to update my sig...



PICS!

The FedEx labels say 17lbs each, that's with packing material. I wasn't too worried about weight as this is my daily driver. Still a fairly light wheel for the price.



I'm looking at some Kosei K-1's for the T2, they are pretty light and resonably priced.
