Well after 28,000km I have gone through my first set of tyres. So off I went to get new tyres but alas I could not help myself and look what I came home with:




Am very happy with the purchase, Ezzy I dropped your name so hopefully the guys at Tempe will give you a commission :D

Soon as he fixes that engine light problem, or as soon as Hymee finishes his supercharger, whichever comes first.

Looks nice but a bit too much bling bling for my liking, but hey, whatever rocks your boat. :D

The tyres are 235/35/20 and are Nitto Extreme ZR NT-555. I am a little sceptical at the moment about the tyre, however they seem grippy enough, but the first track day will tell. The guys there assured me that in terms of performance that they are very very good and are a softer compound for good dry grip.

Anyhow they are only 6mm diameter larger than stocks, so speedo accuracy is not an issue, that was a big factor in my choice of rims.

The Bling factor is not as bad as it looks in the photo, as my wife said, "what's wrong wasn't the yellow bright enough already?" Hey but what do women know :).
