My new wheel/tire set-up. anyone else have either one???

So I dont have them on the car yet being I live in toledo and well its still F**kin snowing out.

Anyway:

15X6.5 Motegi Traklite +35
Graphite 5-spoke
4.5kg (9.9lbs!) a piece and FORGED!!

General Exclaim UHP
205/50

General Exclaim UHP


I was gonna go with Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2's.....but these were 1/2 the price and got as nearly good reviews on the tirerack. Only $64 each.

Does anyone have these wheels or tires. I know I will most likely rub being +35 but I guess I will deal with it.

I'll post picks once i get them on the car.

i dont have those tires but i havnt heard much about those


for tires im a huge fan of the hankook rs2. i heard federal tires are great! thicker and stronger side wal then the azenis tires.


those wheels are pretty light, basically just as light as the rpf1s and pretty cheap too. hmmm i need a set of daily drivers i might get those and paint them some crazy color or something.


i dont think im going to change my mind on tires.

its either the hankook rs2...k106 or the falken azenis rt615.

I choose these cause i drive a lot on the highway. Plus I have a set of auto-x tires if i wanna race it. These are supposed to last for 30-40K

Wheels are about $220 each new.

ouch never mind on the price. the rpf1s are cheaper. i guess it comes down to which one looks better


im running sumitomos right now, and they handle pretty decent. ive gotten pretty good miles out of them so far. almost 35k total and thats with the drag racing that my buddie used to do at the track and on the freeway.

I roll on 205/45/16 genral exclaim uhp. I have no complaint's. I've had them for about 10,000miles know. Last summer was one of the wettest in recent years and these tires handled extremely well in the rain. I did not hydroplane once. The tread blocks are kinda small but for low power daily driver they work effectively. If it was a high power car the tread block might chunck but I never see that being an issue for the fit. For the price u can not the looks and performance. I would definetly recommend them.
