Holy crap that's fast.
Must have been from a store that you can walk into.
They doing the mounting and balencing too?
I love it when it's simple, it just never happens that way for me, I'm always hauling shit around...



Gone but not forgotten. I loved that little Nissan of mine...

I know you asked him, but I'm going to chime in.

This is what I'm buying next.


HANKOOK- The Ventus R-S2 Z212 was created from the successful Ventus RSS Z211 racing design, brought to the street with improved road contact surface area for dry traction and a tread design featuring exceptional water dispersion for wet conditions. The result is a street tire delivering maximum grip with the proven Ventus Ultra-High Performance tread compound.

I need a set of rain tires for the track for my 3rd set of wheels. I have looked around and done lots of reading, and I'm going to check these out. I will use them on the street once in a while as they will give me another look to my car because I will be powdercoating my 3rd set of wheels all grey.

Hey Marco, all color wars aside, should I go grey like the new CRX-SiR wheels, a lighter grey or just go black?

Lookfor a new sig for me next week. I'm off for the weekend, and tomorrow I'm going to pick this up.

Powdercoated, 16' + 2' beaver tail, removable fenders, LED lighting, stake pockets, plenty of D-ring tie downs. I'm so excited!!!
