Really happy with the end result. Totally transforms the car from stock and mild to pretty darn mean. The Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110's are awesome!!!! Stick like glue. Now I just need to do something about the brakes....way too small and noticeable with these wheels. Will have to wait till next year.

OP - Did you have trouble getting yours balanced? I just dropped my car off to have them re-balanced. I've got a shake at 50+mph as of the last couple days...shouldn't since they were just done last weekend.

Funny you should ask.....I had my tires mounted a a high-end suspension shop and they had trouble with two of the tires. I purchased them from the Tire Rack. they are an authorized installer for TR. They said they were flat spotted, or out of round. I can't tell the difference. I've had the car up to 80mph and can't detect any problems. They said I could probably send the tires back, but I'd like to avoid that. They didn't say anything negative about the rims.

I got mine from cjponyparts.com mounted n balanced. I was going to do what you did but I had a coupon for CJ. It actually came out to the same price. CJ told me to get them done again and they'll credit me the cost. No luck though today. Car was too low for the lift at the 1st place and the others were booked. Got an appt later this week at discount tire.
