Just some real quick pictures guys since it has been decent weather here the past few days. The container arrived about a week ago with loads of wheels, most notably my Emotion CR KAI's 
Wheels are 18x8.5 front +30, 18x9.5 rear, +20. Went with the T1S in 245 front and 275 rear. Ride is VASTLY improved over stock believe it or not. Much more compliant over bumps, and grip levels are way up now even with the cold pavement we have here now.
Wheels weighed in at 19 lbs front, 20 lbs rear....frankly for the price, I could have cared less, as these are my wheels for the street so no need ned to go all nuts with the weight.
Now with these on, I really really need my sideskirts (INGS) and rear wing (Balsarini) and lip (Veilside or Data Systems, still deciding) installed like yesterday - it will look so much better then I think!). The stock front mudflaps are doing nothing for me now - in fact I hate how they look..but I am loving the wheels.
I promise some higher res shots this coming weekend

Best part guys is the price.....we can do SICK deals on these. That's why I jumped on them becuase they are rare in this country, and very very affordable.

Thnaks guys
I love the T1S's - have used them on customer cars countless times, but never on my own. it's a very forgiving tire, and despite the sizes and the bigger wheels, it rides better than it did with the stock 17's!.
Have not had them in rain yet, but so far, they have been excellent.

Any suggestions for sideskirts guys? I love the Vertex, but tey have some issue against sellig the skirts seperately. C West are also very nice (I love the little step they have), and love the INGS, though they are a bit pricey.
NISMO I do not like at all

Greddy/TS, etc I am not a fan of due to the vents.
Going to see what I can do about grabbing some vertex ones by themselves, as they are the exact look I want.
