265 isn't that abit of an oddball size, i know 255 and 275 are common

true, there isn't as many choices in the 265 size, but a lot of people had issues with rubbing with a 275, and since I autocross I wanted the widest tire I could get.

The more I look at the pics, the more I think I like those wheels on the car.

Can't wait for good pics tomorrow!

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 6:18 pm

that looks awesome Mox. now go wingless....

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 6:56 pm

Why no centercaps, Mox?

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:02 pm

They look like crap IMO.

really cheap looking, the car looks more aggressive and autocross like without 'em

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:03 pm

when's the Evo gettin' dumped on coilovers?

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:07 pm

probably after the holidays, that or If get a decent bonus at work before then

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:43 pm

how about wingless? wingless FTW! my coupe should be wingless soon...

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:54 pm

I don't like the wingless look. If you do remember I kept the wing on my SRT too.

TNK · Post by **TNK** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:55 pm

this is true.

LowNSlow · Post by **LowNSlow** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:57 pm

so how u like them thar tires?

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Sat Nov 07, 2009 7:58 pm

The down draft spoilers and wingless trunks just look incomplete on an EVO. I like as close to stock look as possible. So the wing will stay.

LowNSlow wrote:so how u like them thar tires?

They're pretty good so far.

I've only had a couple chances to open the car up with all that has been going on recently.

From what I have experienced....

1) Absolutely no tire squeal when taking corners hard
2) Almost no sliding or rear end breaking loose when pushed at speed.
3) Very crisp turn in and decent steering feel when moving.
4) Terrible steering feel and response in parking lots and in traffic.
5) Car just absolutely moves when you hit the gas, grips like crazy
6) Tires are very noisy during everyday driving.
7) Can definitely tell they are an XL load rated tire.

thats it for now.
