Ok. I like the tires. I like the wheels. I just don't like them on a 2GN chassis. Oh well. Soe of you like them, and Mox you like them, and really that's all that matters.
They look classy tho.

I like the Clean look, and the wheels just stuck out to me. I absolutely hated them. I looked for a long time for a wheel that looked clean and would fit the body lines of the car. These Wheels are so much better in my opinion. Frank can tell you how many times I sent him a link to a different wheel type.
The Dunlops are an Extreme Performance Tire. So there is no Comparing them to the Toyo Proxes 4. The Steering is so much more crisper. No Comparison. None. They dont break loose as easy as the Toyos... But I still have some traction issues.
No shit sherlock!
You need some DR's in the front!
Damn those tires are meaty indeed. Great choice!
Hey Mox Your new shoes look soooooo much better than before. I've always loved the way the 5 spoke rims look on any type of Neon. I believe that they flow very well on your beast, but most people will only see them as a blur as you zoom past them. Now go kick some ass on the road. But most importantly be safe.
*Edit* Almost forgot to say that your photo shoot looks like something that TiNK would have done.
Exactly, 5 spoke rules. Those rims look awesome on eBlue.
That would be the color and type I would get for my car. Reminds me of bad04srt's.

There's a Center cap, but it doesn't cover the lugs. Its small and just covers the hub.

They are in my garage.. $200 would take them, plus shipping of course or pickup.
I drove in the rain all day today.. What a difference of the Proxes. Wow. I didn't hydroplane one time. Car stayed planted and I didn't have to start in 2nd gear at every stoplight.
The Stripe is coming off on my next day off and a fresh coat of Zaino will be going on.

Those tires just look so mean and bad-ass looking. Now it looks like an auto-crossing car.
