RIMEZ!!! I think you'll be happy with their performance compared to the old ones, will probably be more comfy too.

Still waiting on tires too, starting to run out of time here.

I am still worried about the white color though

I thought you had your tires all figured out for this season? Which ones are you waiting for?

I will probably skip the test and tune in mid April, but I am thinking about going down on the 26th to Lethbridge for event 1. If mid April comes along and it still isn't looking good I will have to order something else instead.

Sounds about right, hopefully they come through. I don't really have a good backup planned. I guess RE01's

Yeah, they came in first I like things that come in first, it is like a sign! lol

They are not as light as I was thinking though; the whole package weighs 37.4lbs on the scale. I remember weighing my stockers & RTX wheels at one point, but not how much they came in at.

Wow, totally ghey... this package weights more than my 17's did

so the c10 in 15X6.5 is 13 pounds. If total weight is higher, those tires are pigs!

They are specified at 21lbs per tire, so I assume 3lbs of air weight?

Looks like I will be doing a dyno with the stock rims & new summer tires I picked up for them yesterday instead!

I was hoping to do it through Toma again so I can get the most comparable results to last time.

Could you set it up for me on May 17th?
