Default Tires Tires Wheels...

Okay, so for my birthday this month, my father wants to get me new wheels for the summer. And more importantly, tires for this winter, on my stock rims. So, what are the best recomendations, and nothing too pricey like 200 a tire, or over 250 per wheel (I dont really care about name brands like Mugen, because they do the same thing, make the car look better). Any good ideas or suggestions on tires and or wheels?

What I had in mind for wheels...

18" x 7.5" 5/114.3 & 5/100 35 - - $223.99

And I couldn't find any winter/all season tires... I want somthing that is good for winter driving, but can have fun with and not restictive, like summer tires.

Bridgestone Blizzaks for the winter. I'm going to pick up some ASA AR1's from Tire Rack wrapped in BF Goodrich KDW tires. Look them up on TR's website, they'll look good on Berlina.

No 18's. Don't do it.

On the + side, they might slow you down.

So, if not 18's stick with 16's? I just hate the way my tires are like monster truck tires lol... they are so big! I want some thin tires. Any more suggestions?

Enkei RFP1. Tire Rack sells them, they have a nice selection in 16" and 17", they are not that expensive, they are nice and lightweight, and they look nice IMO
