New wheels for the G (pics)and tire question
Bought these wheels a few months ago . They needed a lil work . I sanded all the chipping powder coat painfully down to bare aluminum . I am planning on painting them gloss black (I spray professionally ) but i decided to just plasti-dip them for the winter then paint in the spring .
Wheels are 20" Iforged Daytonas with BFG KDW tires and muteki sr48 neochrome lugs.
Now for the question . The tires have around 50% tread left and 1 front tire is scraped along the outer top . Does anyone have a problem with these tires being really LOUD ? When i get up to 10-40mph its the loudest and when coming to a stop . Best way to describe it is it sounds like a swarm of bee's chasing me or the horizontal grating on some bridges . Is that normal ? Do you think the tires is the culprit or could it be the wheels ? I had them balanced before i mounted them .
Teaser pics . It was dark and snapped a few pics . Better pics to come . Dont mind my car being filthy .Lips need a little polishing .BTW yes i know i need a little drop . Its not to bad though and offsets look great .

ahhh i got you . so the one with the scrape on the outside would be on the other side of the car on the inside . Why didnt they do that **** when they put the tires on since the scrape was already there . I can see them charging a lot to do it over since the first time took over a hour a tire and 4 guys .

what problems can that cause ? Barrels look good except one had a 1/4" crack that was professionally welded . If it were a problem wouldnt it not be able to be balanced . The place that it was welded at is well know for doing excellent work and he said it wouldnt cause any problems .

Those tires are known for being very noisy. I had them for one week and took them back to my shop because of the noise. I have a lot of customers that buy them and I let them know that they are loud and they understand. BTW if it took that place an hour each wheel and four people than they do not know what they are doing.
