new rims - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #24523 14 posts Started by rocky2006
my 17" silver Enkei RS5's came today wrapped in some Nankang NS-I 205/40/17 tires. i have never been so happy with a single mod in my life. i dont know if those tires or supposed to suck, but they have 200% better traction and handling than my old tires. my next purchase is a digital camera so i can actually show you guys what ive done over the year that ive had my car.

J/P Good choice

I will return one day.
they look nice. definitely post pics when you get them on
theyre on, just no pics. i definitly need to lower it a bit, but they match my car great. silver rims with the pro car parts sides and turns looks good; at least i think so. i thoght the rims looked O.K. in the pics on wheelsnext but on the car is another story.
I'll help ya out

haha, thanks. i liked them on the site, then when i saw def's profile i was hooked. since the wheels are so open, im going to get a red caliper paint kit to go with the car even though it will be a different shade.
I have those tires, they just wear really fast. But traction is good in the dry, and ok in the wet. I had mine on for 6 months last year and this year switched the backs and fronts because the fronts were worn so bad. Also you should have gotten the 215's it just give you more rubber to protect and against curbs.
i wanted to get 215/45/17, but the package came with 205/40/17. i saved pretty much money by going this way. also, im the first person on the site with these rims and a red car >biggrin.gif>.
i have the same wheels too... check the profile for more pics
looks nice bro, congrats.
