It's a little more bumpy then stock, but seems to handle a lot better. Less body roll IMO

Looks good. I was thinking about doing 17X9 42 Grids in white with 245/40/17 Dulops on a WRB BRZ?

I don't think it was a case of evening knowing we both ordered the same style until afterwards which is cool. Great minds think alike..I would've had a 40 series tire had they not changed up on me at the last minute when I was getting them mounted. But I will be going with a lower profile and most likely coilovers later on this year. I still think it's awesome you did the flat black with red lugs on your raven.

Very nice! This is the the same setup I'll be doing in the spring after the winter tires/stock wheels come off.

Thank you sir!!! I think I'm going to do what cori is going to do later on. Go with a smaller profile tire and coilovers to go lower.

Here is a pic we took yesterday:

Now that I've seen shots of both the hyper black and flat black, I think I'm leaning towards the latter. Again, a really good look.
