I know that feeling. Been waiting over a year to fix and powdercoat my wheel my gf bought me. Now just waiting to burn up my stock tires

Thinking of new wheels. I'm super sick of my grids for DD wheels.

I'm thinking 17x9 rota titan (weds rep) in white or custom color?? Any suggestions on a good custom color?

I think I might go up to 255/40/17 for DD tire size too, I'm on 245s now. I like how my 255 autoX tires pick the body of my car up off the ground a little with the taller sidewall. A few MM helps more than you'd think!!

Don't confuse any of Falken's other stuff with the RT-615 Azenis, they aren't quite as good as the original 215's, but they still beat the pants off anything at that price point. And given the contact patch and size of the blocks, they work excellent in the wet too. As long as you can deal with the low treadwear rating and the need to replace them more often than the plastic tires the cars come with, they are seriously worth the price.
