Where Can I buy those rims/tires combo:

I guess I have to go with 235/45/17 with ADR Engima 17x8, Weight maybe is some 19lb.

Here is the ADR Enigma:



They cost some $165/each from http://www.rim1.com/

I like to have either the Nitto555 235/45/17 for $122(price from http://www.tires.com) or maybe the toyo T1S will be okay.

Here is the Nitto555:


So total cost would be ($165+$122)x4=$1148

However, I prefer to get those from the same place, mounted and balanced.

Any one knows where is the best place to get those?

Thanks for any hints.

Also if you are conserned about wet traction I would go with Dunlop, W10s are cheep and really good and SP9000s are in my opinion the best tire on the road..

Again the debate between 18" or 17"... People were debating this on the other thread and suggested that keeping 17" with wider and sticker tires will improve performace and handling. The 18" will improve the "look" and may negatively affect the performance.

Unfortunately, they do not carry toyos or Nittos, no mounting for the tires and no balance for the wheels

That's bullshit! I cant believe they would charge you that amount for 17's!! I ended up getting mine (EXACT same ADR Enigma's) for $1599 with tires and they were 18's! Why dont you get 18's? They will look tight!

The quote was like this:

$1400 for Toyo T1-S 235/45/17 with ADR 17x7
+ Shipping = $1,500

$1500 for Nitto 235/45/17 with ADR 17x7
+ Shipping = $1,600

Actually the Nitto are cheaper than toyo.
The toyo are $171/each and the Nitto are $122/each.!!!

Nashua-
Ar these tires for summer only or winter as well? If you are going to use them for winter, dont get the Toyo TS1's! Horrible in the snow! But great for wet/dry! For all season Z rated toyo's, get the Proxy FZ4's

Can you fit 235/45 on 17x7's safely? I thought that 235 would be too wide for 7 inch rims??? Of course, I hate the tire selection of 215/50's, and 225/40's is too thin for me...

His top entry says 17X8, I think that is what he is planning on, not 17X7?

I am planning on keeping the stock tires/wheels for the winter/snow (I can live with their performance).

Those tires would be used between April and November.

I would like to go with 45 series since I do not want to suffer the ride quality too much. Nashua is full of holes and the city does not care about the quality of roads. All what they care about is collection $431 for CLS registration!


Thanks you all for your replies!
