I bought the wheels and tires used from Scot. There's a lot of wear on the outside. The tires originally only have 6/32 tread. So they do in fact have a good bit of life left even though they look pretty bald. At 3/32, they supposedly give the most grip. I most definately will be buying either these or the kumho's next time. Once I get my car lowered on a kit, I'll switch over to the UK alignment and thicker sway bars. Maybe then I'll get some more even wear.
For the fitting, I gotta check out the offset to see if a big brake kit will fit on it. So far I'm a bit skeptical but who knows. The offset seems right but the 40 bolts holding the pieces of the wheels together stick out a lot and I'm fearing that it'll hit on larger aftermarket calipers. I might just have to grind down the bolts a little bit if that's the case.
Thanks for the kind words . I'll get to clearing the lights as soon as I can.
