I've read over this thread and the wheel thread many times, and all of them say that the Falken 452's are known to bubble. I don't have any experience with the Falkens myself, but if lots of people who normally stretch tires make this claim... I'm going to believe them.

Someone recommended me to stretch some Toyo's yesterday.

Thx
Try the Market Place. PM either RavSpec or Don@TireOption. If you're looking for WORK T1S, I will tell you that you're about to look like a lot of people on this forum. I am guilty of it.

A long wait as well when ordered brand new.

I was looking at SSR's too...Especially the MS1's, but I think this time around I want a straight/reverse lip other than a Step-Lip setup and try to go bigger lip wise and more aggressive. Thoughts?
If you're looking at SSR's, I would go with either the MS1's or the SP1 Professors. SSR's have a lot of spokes, which is why I like the design. They look really nice rolling. I like the Professors because to me, its like a classic 5 spoke wheel.

If I were to pick any new wheels though, I would choose step-lip all the way. Reverse lip is nice and all, but the step-lip just makes it a bit more aggressive in my opinion.

In the end though, its your choice.
