yes they are off an ap1 however i used the same setup on my 04 and NEVER had a problem
I'm actually looking for AP1 wheels since the rubber is a little cheaper and the slightly thinner tires are better in the snow (see what an expert I've become in just over 24 hours )

Can you message me contact info for Thomas, Bass?

As for storing my summer wheels, that's a very generous offer, almost too generous. Is there a catch, or are you just a super nice guy?

The catch is . . .

when you go to pick them up in the summer you may find Steve sitting on the floor between your wheels miming as if he is steering a car (picture this: ) and making engine noises (vroom! vroom!) and saying things like "VTEC rocks!"



Seriously though, Steve's just a nice guy.

I'm heading into my 6th winter with mine. Tire Rack currently has a great price on Bridgestone Blizzak WS50's. Currently $87. apiece in 225/50R16. that's $30 to $50 off per tire depending on where you shop. I've run LM22's in the past but opted for the more aggressive WS50's this time around.

P.S. I run 225/50R16's all around so I can rotate them, never had any issues with this set up.

shhhh don't give away my plan i miss my s2k

BUT no catch at all - i have plenty of room in my basement for your summer tires. It's what we do in New England - people helping people

Heck come to the Pirate Party on the 27th and meet everyone

i'll shoot you Thomas' cell phone and e-mail address first thing in the morning as i left my cell at the office

I got lucky with a craigslist post and scored a set of Dunlop m3's with a good amount of tread and mounted on 16" Enkei RS6's all for 250.00! I'm probably going to try to hold out until early/mid november before mounting them. Luckily my commute is only 5 miles so either way I'm hoping to be OK this winter.
