There is a dealership in Oakland, CA that will have a full FiveAD car at this car show I'm going to on Saturday. Not sure if that one is for sale or not though.

Damn I would love to buy the full car. Kit and wheels and springs.

wow that full five axis body and the red out tail light! just wow!!! anyone got any tips or tricks to red out your tail lights?

Looks good but what's the weight on these?

Last I checked maybe 3 years back 5 Axis wheels are on the heavier side compared to other manufacturers. You sure don't wanna be adding 8-10 lbs of unsprung weight (with tires) to each corner.

Just got the silver, it was already on order for the car when I swooped it up. Thinking of painting them. Not sure if I'm feeling the silver, kinda liked the darker 17s on it.

Are those 19"? If so, did it affect the performance that you can tell? I'm still waiting on my wheels and am very curious about the performance aspect.

GOOOOOOOOOOD LORD!!!!! WOW

Twiggyb · 07-24-2012, 01:10 PM

Yes, they are 19s. I've noticed I need to put a little more pressure to the brakes. Being an AT I don't know how it would compare to an MT, but it does need a little more push to the pedal to get going. Not a lot more though, nothing compared to my TIS 20s I had on my tC. Overall not a big difference for someone like me who's not trying to race all the time. I would have gotten the MT if I wasn't LD with stick shifts lol.

Thanks for the reply! Are you staggered of squared up? And the big question, can you still hang the rear end out?

Synack · 07-24-2012, 01:19 PM

Yeah 19's will definitely slow you down a tiny bit. If you go for a stretched tire then you can save some weight and grip and still have a bit of fun. I would not go any wider than 235 in the back because you won't ever lose traction on stock power. Stock tires are 215's in the back.
