Now they will go on my Ultra Silver Metallic SS/TC as soon as I get TPMS sensors

They are hard to find...and really expensive(the sensors that is)

BTW Tire Rack doesn't carry ASA JH8's anymore...

If I could upgrade, I would... but no one makes what I want in a 5x110...

...here is what I would get, if they made them in 5x110... something along these lines:

Motegi Traklites


5Zigen FN01R-C Hot Version




But NOBODY makes a SIMPLE all black 5-spoke in 5x110. Its bullshit I tell you.

I do actually like the Rial's though.

Looks nice man!!
Thanks bro! Not really any scraping at all. Though, if you look inside the fender well in the front you can kinda see some plastic that was scraped off... but I never heard or felt it so it must've been very subtle and only on sharp turns.

personally i think 40 sidewall is perfect, a 45 is too big and a 50 looks like ur about to go ******* off roading, lowered 50 looks like a rally car

depends on what size wheel. My 50 profiles look appropriate on my stock 17"s....other wise, even lowered I would've had crazy wheel gap like the silver car above.

Now on my 19"s, my 35 profile tires look perfect.

For 17"s, 50 profile.

For 18"s 40-45 profile tire depending on how much drop the car has

For 19"s, a 35-40 profile tire.

And for 20"s, a 30-35 profile tire.

its not about wheel gap, im talking about with a 45 or 50 there is too much sidewall, it doesnt look right to me, i would soon have wheel gap with a low pro tire versus no wheel gap but a huge ass tire IMO

If you say so. I had 45 profile tires on my 17"s on my RX-7, and with my 1" drop I had on it, it looked perfect. Any thinner of a tire and it would've looked retarded.....like a damn mexican's car. You gotta take into account that some cars are much bigger than others. For example, my roomates Civic hatch has 16"s with a 40 profile tire and it looks great. Now, put 16"s with a 40 profile tire on my car and it'd look ****** retarded.

But you have fun with your super thin tires on small wheels and massive amounts of wheel gap. I'll stick to my 19"s. They have a 35 profile tire, and its dropped on Sportlines, so I also have very little wheel gap. In my opinion....thats what you call done correctly.
