Im with Suno, silverstone is sooooo common. We had a dyno day last year in Toronto, the first 20 cars to show up were silverstone.

Because a pretty car is more important to you than a better handling one?

With an AP1, I'd at least pick up some cheap used AP2 wheels to have more tire choices. 205 / 225 is just sad for a modern car...

I love my stock silverstone ap1 on 16" ap1 wheels. Every ap1 around where I live has ap2 wheels or aftermarket wheels. Staying stock is different. There's no need for 17" wheels(for my needs). I've got race rubber for when I go to the track.

Who cares?
Just because its common doesn't mean it isn't an S2000.
Thats like saying they aren't going to draft African Americans into the NBA because there are so many good ones
