I was able to get the new rims on my car today. It didn't take too long and it wasn't too cold outside (am I really saying that in the middle of May?). I like the way they look. Lowering the car about an inch would be a good idea, I think. That may be next on the list.

These are 17" Enkei Performance RZ-5 GM rims with Hankook Ventus tires.

So far, I'm planning on racing it in June. There's a beginner's racing course that I want to get in on. That should be a lot of fun. The brakes are fine but at the track, they want to see new brakes, so I'll get the brakes done anyway and then buy a helmet and that should be all I need.

Nice ride, nice tires.

Those rims suit your Acura perfectly, great choice. I can't tell what model your car is by the picture alone. Did you plus size at all with your rims? In any case I hope you win a few races man!

New Tires

Thanks. It's an RSX base - not the Type S unfortunately (but I'm in a different race class than the Type S, which is good). Yeah, I went one inch bigger on the diameter and two sizes wider.
