I've been busy

Just finished my setup for wheels and tires on my 04 S in order to be ready for the next AX.

My starting point was to remove the 18" Michelin AS3 All Season tires to get ready to move to the 17" Turbo Twists.


I wanted to try a different look, so I decided to Plastidip the wheels Black, I wanted a grey but not available when I was shopping.




Added 15 mm spacers to the front and 10 mm spacers to the rear.




I picked up the Falken Azenis RT615K's on special closeout pricing of $400 plus shipping (price has gone up about $10 per tire since I purchased).




Here are the results. I went for a quick run and was pleased with the feel and the handling. Can't wait for the next AX! :dance:

Thanks Fred, I value your opinion.

BTW - I can't wait for your new infotainment system. Put me on the list!
