Wheels are a really great style, but the tire size/width is IMO overkill for the exact reason the plate states. Overpromising, underdelivering. Now if the twins put down 300 at the wheels the look would be totally appropriate. (At least there is no GT1-class spoiler attached!)

congrats man. I loved you STI but I'm kind of liking your BRZ a bit more. Keep up the good work.
