New XXR 550 Hyper Silver 18x8.75
XXR 550 18x8.75 +36 235/40R18 Continental DWS 06 Swift BRZ sport springs Whiteline camber bolts SPC lower control arms Bilstein B6 rear shocks, fronts will be done next month. For those that remember me you won't be surprised to know that even though these are only a few weeks old i have something else ordered. I like them a lot and a couple different people said they were perfect on the car today i am probably going to try something else. |

swapped them out already, went with a lighter and slighty narrower Enkei. |

Why did you ditch them so quickly?

I do agree with this assessment actually. I have 245/40 on my 9.75 and it looks like I have 225 on them because they appear very stretched when they are not. I hope I get over it. I probably will because you only see it when you're actually looking for it I think. I think they're also very heavy. I did not expect to lose 3mpg going from a 8.75 xxr530 to these staggered on slightly stickier tires...can you confirm their weight?

The Enkei i have now are 20 pounds instead of the 23.5 or so of the XXR. That was part of the reason for the swap also. |
