noone986s,
So far it is going great - I'm really loving the wheels and tires. Both performance wise and looks! I have to admit I've only driven the car a few times for a total of less than 100 miles. It isn't a daily driver and I can't seem to get a break from work travel.
At any rate here are some thoughts:
My initial impression was the ride was considerably stiffer. Now, after a few drives, it feels no differently than the old 17 inch wheel/tire combination. So yes, it is stiffer than before, but it isn't close to being offensive. In fact, in a strange unexplainable way I like the feel of the car better now.
It also feels like the steering is more responsive. I don't know if it is just a perceived difference or reality, but the steering feels quicker.
I did repaint my center caps to better match the color of the spokes. They aren't perfect, but match better than before.
Although it will be time consuming, I've verified that I can stick my hand through the spokes and clean the barrel of the wheels, which I intend to do on a regular basis.
CJ & J-RAD, thanks for the compliments.
