Yeah, it's about time I made up my mind. Thanks, TUFF GONG, I think they look real nice, too. Like we were talking about, though, I think these are cast, not SSF'ed. I couldn't justify the extra money, though, so these have to do... for now.
GOT PSI, these are those Nakayama's, 18x7.5, +45. I think they look very nice on our WDP. They are very shiny, without being chrome. I don't think I'll see another TL like mine in my area.
~$1,600 out the door...

I'll just have to trim it this weekend.I went with the Kumhos. I don't think anything else under $150 was much better, and I couldn't see spending over $200 per tire at this time.
Are you getting any closer to chosing anything?

Have you been to a dealer that has them in stock, yet? How much would they run you in the sizes/styles you want (did the Sport Compact ad have a price?)?

Sim, the wheels look great! Once the weather gets a little better we'll have to get a meet together.

The meet sounds like a great idea. It's been a while, and hopefully we'll have more people show. I want to see what other people have done so I can get an idea of what I want to do next.

No more rubbing!
I took my Dremel, and 5 minutes later that dumb plastic tab was gone, and all my problems with it. Life is good.
I've gotten soooo many more looks since I've gotten my wheels. :wow:
