Finally got my new tires/rims
Rims aren't anything special: Aspec 18's which I had refinished with a hyper-silver (still has the hint of black, but a bit more silver than the stock ebony finish).
But I have to say that, by far, the new tires are the biggest improvement to this car. Got the Goodyear Response edge. Had them before on my TL-S and just love the balance of performance and noise (or lack thereof).
First, the cabin is substantially quieter but the handling has improved 200%. Where I used to be able to hit certain turns at no more than 40mph, I now find myself easily entering/exiting at 10mph more. Since the tires are new, I'm still being pretty timid. I cannot believe the exponential improvement new/good tires have afforded this car. I'm in love all over again.
Just had to share.

Modding wheels + no pix of mod=bad user.
Seriously, post some pics of the setup when you can. I'm interested in seeing the modification to the wheel color.

In my defense: I didn't post this thread in the "photograph gallery" - so no promise of pictures with my thread was either given or implied..
I'll try to get some pics up this weekend. At this point, my RL isn't anything special just a plain old a-spec.. :P
