I use the stocker s02's. they are sticky and I like the feel. Mich's are nice. I don't like the pirelli feel.

i guess thats my criteria, stickyness and feel.

off topic, but it's my ing thread... what do you think about putting 19s on the rear? (with 18s up front)

it'll throw away months of tuning the susp but...

nope. don't do it. I'd stay 16", maybe 17" but I don't want the extra weight.

i ahve 18s all around. and they're not light. a few extra pounds isnt gonna hurt me. i was wondering more about aesthetics.

beaner, how'd you like the looks with 17in front, 18in rear?

I didn't like it..

which is why i switched to 17's all around.. the car is too short to run a setup like that... matches better on a long car like the nsx.. imo.

Handling also jus didn't feel right..
