New Shoes!

I finally got around to installing my new wheels & tires over the weekend and here a few quick pictures of the new set up. I ditched the run flats and went with a lighter wheel.

So far after about 500 miles on them, I can say that I really like the ride over the previous OEM set up with the run flats. Obviously they are much less noisy on the road, as it's not fair to compare 38,000 miles run flats to brand new non-run flats. Even when in Sport mode the ride is very nice, not harsh at all. The little bit to torque steer that was in the car is now gone as well.

Neuspeed RSe10 18"x7.5" wheel, black

Pirelli P Zero All Season Plus
