Expensive but worth it!

So it also had the body colored rollbar, aluminum look interior trim and gauge rings and windblocker, but a base radio with only dashboard speakers and no trip computer). I love the look of the 18 inch wheels but wanted a half inch more rubber between my backside and what passes for roads here in Northern NJ.

When I had the chance to snag a set of 2003 17 inch rims, I did. Having prematurely replaced a couple of rear 18 inch PS2's due to road damage, I thought I would try something less expensive. Wish I had seen what people said here about the various brands of tires, the Toyos made my steering wheel and car vibrate annoyingly. I might have bought the Dunlop Direzza's, but having gone through the agony of the Toyos, I decided to go with Michelin again. I drove the Boxster to work yesterday and today, it is like a new car with these new Michelins!
