Very nice.

 

How do you like your General Exclaim UHP tires? What are your impressions on road noise, treadwear, wet/dry grip, ride?

 

I love the drop.

 

dam those tires are stretched!

 

^Like a fat bitch in spandex.

 

I like the deep dish on the wheels. That is almost exactly what I have been looking for.

 

they are simply amazing...for the money i paid which was 100$ per tire... couldnt be happier...

i have some decent camber and i have driven the car for say around 8000 kms.. with no real noticeable tire wear..

i hear that these have long treadlife which decreases grip theoretically but i have yet to squeal them or spin out, and i take turns really hard.. and its responsive in the sense that you can feel the tires giving away.. so no freaking out.. ( did a slalomn test in a parking lot)

although they are not the best when the road gets a litte icy..( duhh Zrated) i just start sliding everywhere lol... got stuck in a snow squall once..

im using 35 series so they are back breaking stiff (52 psi).. especially the fronts..

road noise is not much of a problem for me.. im a city driver.. nothing annoying on the occasional freeway drive..i have the radio on at normal levels and no problem..

my impressions maybe bias though.. since these are the only aftermarket tires ive used and i rarely drove the stock potenzas hard.. couldnt stand the bodyroll...

if you are looking for cheap tires they are well worth the money..

 

yea i didnt want to roll the fenders toooo much.. anxious of cracking the paint.. and i like the drifter look..hence stretch tires... some of the guys down at the local track run 215s on a 9inch wheel!!!!

 

i know there are pictures, but how does the color of the wheel compare to the car color? pretty close?

 

any suspension work??

 

Thanks for the detailed response. I ran across these tires on tire rack, and I've spoken to some people at Discount Tires, and the general impression was pretty good. Especially with the price. The thing that makes it appealing to me (other than the price) is that it's fairly lightweight. 23 lbs. for 245/35/19 and 25 lbs. for 275/30/19. 12 lbs. saved in overall unsprung weight is pretty good!

Setup looks good btw.

 

tein basics.. slammed to their lowest.. nothin else.

 

really eh?. i didnt know they were light.. lol.. good stuff...best value for the money!!

 

if you look closely at the picture you can tell that the rim is a TRUE gunmetal colour.. but the contrast is perfect .. if you took a glance at it wouldnt be noticeable at all especially at night..
