Hey everyone,

Got the chance to mount the tires onto my new Enkei RP03s, 19x9.5 r and x8.5 f. The tires are BFG gForce T/A KDW2s... (new tread).

Steve, nice... They are very highly rated by the users on TireRack.com. Of course those need to be taken with a sizeable grain of salt, as they are not objective scientific comparisons. We'll find douot soon enough... but I am cautiousy optimistic.

Lucidazn,

The wheels were in the $1500 range, while the tires were around $1100 mounted (including tax). You can get these on TireRack for $998 shipped (to california in my case), as out-of-state shipments are not taxed...

I like the tires, I have a set of those ordered coming in 255/35 front and 285/35 rear and cannot wait to get them. The tread looks really good.

These tires are HUGE, I love the aggressive look..

however, it is supposed to be a very very good tire.... We'll know soon enough... BTW, we test fitted them on Clint's car... the fit with these tires is a little off, way too aggressive...

I will have to dial in a little bit more camber... and it will look VERY nice I think/hope. With "regular" 275 tires... it wouldn't be as bad. Sorry no pictures..

BTW... I really really loved the look of these rims .... I am very happy. You are going to love them, I am sure. The rears have a significantly deeper face than the fronts... really gives it that aggressive loook.
