New wheels and tires!

Love the wheels, those are the ones I wanted, but they are only 7.5" wide and 275s were too skinny for my tastes. Those tires though, hate to say it, but the tread looks like ****. It basically looks like a stock tire. The original Proxes have a great, aggressive look to them. And I can't really see the new STII's performing much better than the originals. The ST's are quiet and really impress me with their wet grip.

Yeah, apparently they were discontinued several months ago. I can't tell you how happy I am to have gotten the 285/60/18s for $80 a piece. If I wasn't able to get the Toyo's I really don't know what I would have done. I have yet to see a tire I like even remotely close to the Proxes ST.
