Summer wheel/tire setup

[m_dogg]

So I finally took off my winter wheels/tires, took me long enough and picked up something for the summer. Wheels are 17x7.5 Sparco Assetto Gara wrapped in Hankooks Ventus V12 - $105 a pop plus $80 discount, not bad.The only downside is the big ass gap, but I'll have to live with it for now...

Yep, thanks for the advice. I guess 235s would look kinda funky...

That looks pretty damn good, it's weird to see you post something that isn't a buick

Really?! Back to 3800 junk?

Don't take that wrong, i would love me another Bonneville or a GPGT. Been looking for one that needs work to fix up and keep as a daily. 3800s are the best, 3800s ARE the fastest.

Hahaha - I always liked your sarcasm dude. I miss the sleeper aspect is all...

Ahh yes yes, I've gotten used to owning slow ass cars, and everyone knows Hondas are slow, so i don't even have to bother

looks great dude!

 

[G_T_O]

Car looks very good man!

 

[slowchevy]

looks sick. gives that car a whole lot more personality IMO!

is that car manual ?

have no idea if they came that way but always thought they were pretty neat looking. real smooth looking.

saw one that said SPEC B on it once, have no idea what the difference was but it sounded like an STi.

Just a slowww ass auto... LGTs came with 5 speed auto or manual, Spec B was a 6mt.

Looks nice. I just put my summer wheels on today also after getting a flat. :rollpicard:

 

[Dan00Hawk]

I'm running the same wheel in the same size on my GTI. They've held up to some mild abuse just fine. I like the color you went with too. I also have dramatic wheel gap, but I'm okay with it on a daily driver. :smile:
