Talking Need Advice on Tires + Rims

First ... I looking for new alloy wheels and kind of like this design, how do you think these 18" wheels will look on a Arctic Frost gen 2.0 Solara ?? your comments / thoughts are much appreciated ~




Second ... I'm also looking for new all season tires for da car ... currently thinking of the Yokohoma TRZ series tires ... anyone have experience/thoughts on these guys?? I don't expect much as I don't drive aggressively ... just like it quiet

Re: Need Advice on Tires + Rims

I had replied a few days ago but it didn't go in for some reason. Anyhoo....

I think the wheels would look nice on your ride...oh yeah.

I don't have experience with the TRZs, but i have tried both Yoko Avid V4 and Aegis LS4. Of those two, I prefer the Avids as they were slightly better performance-wise but definitely quieter than the blocky Aegis.

All I would suggest is that if you are planning to plus size your wheels, make sure the tire dealer adjusts the aspect ratio so that your speedometer and odometer are still in calibration...that or they recalibrate the speedo/odo.

Nice choice!
