"try" I allready have a few plans but I have to make this months car payment and pay off my credit card bill and ohh yeah the burnout ticket I got, hehe. Knowing me I am far from done but I would like to pay off some more of the car first. Once a Y-Pipe comes out I will grab one right away! I'm also waiting for a nice synthestic aluminum dash kit.


GTR-Rider, whos the #1 used mod seller, LOL!(was that you who said that?)

I dunno if those AP pistons will clear the Integrals....

I was gonna get those but Kevin Wong has a 32mm offset and had trouble with the Wilwoods... That's why I got the Superleggeras from Tirerack. 35mm offset will offer 3mm less spoke clearance. Better check your clearance!

The rims look great though... and the lost weight doesn't hurt either!

Ahh.. OK


245/40/18 is said to offer the most precise speedo reading on a 5th gen SE. Also I don't see how the tire size would change the appearance of the rim size.

235/40 .. hey.. *newsflash* the 5th Gen Speedo was off to begin with..

of course you wouldn't.. you use to think those chromies were cool.. its simple.. if you have more more tire between the rim and the wheel well the rim looks smaller.. its a matter of appearance..

Well what ever, I would rather a wider tire and a taller tire then a skinier low profile tire. You get a smoother ride with more grip and then to top all off the speedo is more accurate. I'm still trying to get use to how much bigger my wheels look, if anything they look a little to big for my taste allready.

BTW those chromies were the bomb You would have had to of seen then in person, every one who ever saw them in person said wow those do look good, they just do not look good pics. Well either it's up to personal prefrence.

Those wheels look very nice. I'm sure they look even better in person. You seem to be buying big dollar stuff constantly. I wish I had the bank you do, kid. Have fun till you get married. After that, (Soup **** voice) "NO MODS FOR YOU!!!" My wife is very understanding of my car habit, but when you're juggling house payments, bills, food, home repair, general stuff, 401K/IRAs, and savings, there seems to be little left over for car stuff. If I wasn't married and lived in a townhouse, I'd be driving either the most badass/fast Maxima around OR I'd be sporting a new European sports sedan. With that said, I'm happily married to a hot wife that treats me well. Just get your car "fix" in while you can


BTW, pay no attention to Sprint, he's just jealous. The TireRack knows thier stuff. I'd trust what they say over Sprint.

Very clean! I personally like the very simple, but elegant look (a.k.a not flashy). Sounds like I'm describing a fine wine.

...That's pretty nice that you were able to increase wheel diameter and tire tread width and still decrease unsprung weight... Thats good engineering. Anybody have any clue as to what a set of 4 18x8 Mille Miglia Evo 5 wheel weigh apiece? I am thinking of upgrading my 02 SE from the standard 17x7 but I don't wanna increase my unsprung weight a lot...

I havent seen a site for tires. They can vary like wheels. My 19 inch toyo t1s tires weigh in at 20 lbs exactly. Apparently these are one of the lights tires avaliable. In comparison Ive been told the bridgestone s03 is close to 25-26 lbs.

-steve

p.s. they look good
Are we sure that the stock weight is 52 for the SE 17x7 with 225/50r17 potenzas? I am trying to figure out if a Mille Miglia Evo (sweet rims) that is 18x8 and weighs 27 lbs. a pop is gonna wind up being too heavy, depending on how much the tire weighs... Emax how heavy were your Kumho 245/40r18s...
