Does anyone have any suggestions on what after market wheels and tires would work best on a 2000 Si? I am not so much concerned with looks as I am with functionality, weight, traction, and clearance. The vehicle has the Eibach Pro-Kit installed so the front has been lowered 1.5" and the rear 1.1", there is also a camber kit installed on the front and rear.

Marcus, what's wrong with your stock wheels (everything is wrong with your stock tires). The oem wheels are nice, personally I'd leave them. There is no right answer to this question. Rota's tend to be inexpensive and light but then you have to choose a look you like. On the other extreme, you can buy something that's all the craze like volk or work wheels, which are really expensive and light. I'd avoid the junk (most les scwab type wheels such as American Racing, Focal, etc).

For tires, search the skidpad forum. Those guys know alot about tires. http://www.tirerack.com also has a review system, so after people buy tires, they can post their experience. Might be a good guide, but be sure to average the results. I'm running Kuhmo Ecsta's on my CRX and Falken Azenis on my EG. Pretty hard to buy worse tires than those factory michelins. Also, I've got Si wheels on my EG and Rota's on my CRX.

Rota is the best deal. Inexpensive, light and attractive. http://www.wheeldude.com .

Wheel choice is a personal preference. I would either stick with the OEM's or go all out and get some JDM wheels. DO NOT GO WITH ROTA'S! Just my .02.

Thanks for the advice, I think I will go with the Rota's. I am interested in the Slipstreams but what size and offset is recommended since my vehicle has been lowered 1.5" in the front and 1.1" in the rear. I do not want the tires to rub the fenders or any other body panel.

If light weight rims are something that you are interested in then go with forged rims. I like SSR comps, but I'm bias since I have them. IMO I'd rather spend some money for quailty then go with something you've seen on every EM1 that comes around the corner. 16's in the SSR's can be had for about 300 bones a peice and look sexy as hell

If you are going to spend the type of cash to get JDM wheels then you should also check out OZ and BBS offerings. I think they are superior to the JDM stuff.

Kosei K1 TS = 12.6 pounds, $119 per rim on Tire Rack. If you can find a lighter cheaper rim, that is still reasonably durable, buy it.

I have to agree with you, the kosei K1's are cheap and light, althought personally I don;t think they are the greatest looking wheels; I have a set but use them strickty for track duty.

gram lights arent exactly volks, they are rays (same company but different division, rays foundry (cast) and volk (forging)) rays wheels are almost all cast (except for the 17 and 18" 57F's). for the price of a set of rotas you could get 1 forged volk te37, if they break just get another set, i would rather spend 500 on a set that weights 12 lbs per wheel (slipstream) than 2000 on a set that weighs 9lbs per wheel (te37).

they sud-denly started Nike Shoes Discount Marketplace to feel very heavy and burdensome.

Cracking my SchoolBook nike air jordan pas cher had Canada Goose Womens Coats been easy. The crack was online Moncler Sale within amonth of ugg clearance the machine showing up, and there was nothing Reebok Outlet Store to it — justdownload newest lebron shoes a DVD image, Pandora Outlet burn it, stick it in the Hogan Outlet SchoolBook, Adidas Superstar and boot itwhile holding down a bunch of different keys at the same time. TheDVD did the rest, installing a whole bunch of hidden programs Christian Louboutin Heels on themachine, programs that North Face Outlet would stay hidden New Nike Shoes even when the ugg factory outlet Board Doudoune Moncler Femme Pas Cher of Eddid its daily remote integrity checks Coach Bags On Sale of the machines. Every now andagain I had to get Nike Kyrie an update for the software to Nike Roshe Run get around the Yeezy Boost Sale Online Board'slatest tests, but Official NHL Jerseys it was a small Adidas Yeezy Cheap price to pay TOMS For Sale to Michael Kors Outlet get a little control Bottes Ugg Femme Pas Cher over Nike Soccer Cleats Boots thebox.

I fired up Uggs For Cheap IMParanoid, the secret instant messenger Discount Air Max that I adidas store used when new pandora charms Iwanted adidas outlet to have an off-the-record discussion right in the Billige Nike Sko middle Moncler Outlet Store of class.

Darryl Cheap Nike Huarache was already ugg store logged in.Once everyone was done, Jolu went to make a key, TOMS STORE and Nike Shoes Sale Store then turnedaway, giving me a sheepish grin. I nike sportschuhe was past my anger with him, though.

He was doing what he had to do. I knew Adidas Soccer Cleats Cheap that no matter what he toms shoes outlet said,he'd Vans Black Sneakers always be there for me. And asics sko we'd been Adidas Neo Discount Sale through the DHS jail togeth-er. Van too. No matter what, Cheap True Religion Jeans that would bind Nike Free Run 5.0 Womens us together forever.

I reebok running shoes did UGG BOOTS FOR WOMEN my key and did the Zapatillas Air Max perp-walk Pandora Style Beads around the gang, letting TOMS SHOES OUTLET everyonesnap cheap uggs a pic. Then Air Max Sneakers I climbed up Air Max Femme on the high 23 IS BACK Store spot Nike Shoes Online I'd spoken from earlierand called for everyone's attention.

"So a lot of you have Nike Air Huarache For Sale noted that zapatillas nike baratas there's a vital flaw in this procedure:

what if scarpe nike this laptop can't Nike joggesko be trusted? Nike Pas Cher Femme What Ugg Outlet Online Store if it's secretly recording our in-structions? What Nike Roshe Run Sale if it's Cheap Louboutin Heels spying on us? new yeezy shoes What if Jose-Luis and I Negozi Pandora can't betrusted?"More good-natured Adidas Superstar Sale Online chuckles. Stone Island Outlet A little cheap uggs for women warmer than before, more beery.

"I Nike Air Max Sale mean it," I said. "If we were Nike Store on the wrong side, this could get chaussure adidas pas cher all ofus — all of you Jordan Shoes Air — into a heap Soccer Boots Outlet nike of trouble. Jail, Abercrombie and fitch store maybe."The chuckles turned more Canada goose dam nervous.

143"So Discount Ray Ban Sunglasses that's why Nike Air Shoes I'm going to do this," I said, nike shoes and picked Jordan Store up a hammerI'd brought from my Dad's Adidas Originals Superstar toolkit. I set the laptop down beside me coach factory outlet online onthe rock Yeezy Men and swung chaussure basket homme the hammer, retro jordans for cheap Jolu following the swing with his key-chain light. Boty Nike Air Crash — I'd always Louboutin Wedding Shoes dreamt Cheap Air Max Trainers of killing pandora jewelry store a laptop with a Moncler Outlet Online ham-mer, and Scarpe Air Max here I was doing Ugg boots Sale it. It felt pornographically good. And bad.

Smash! The nike sneakers screen-panel fell off, Original Ugg Boots shattered converse store into millions of vans shoe store pieces, ex-posing the ジョーダン スニーカー keyboard. I kept Cheap Michael Kors Handbags hitting it, christian louboutin outlet until the keyboard fell Nike Polo Sale off, expos-ing Scarpe Nike Scontate the motherboard and the hard-drive. Crash! I aimed pandora outlet store square for thehard-drive, Air Nike hitting it with everything I had. Air Jordan Retro Sale It took three blows beforethe Discount Christian Louboutin Shoes case split, exposing the fragile media Hugo Boss Sale inside. I Cheap True Religion Jeans kept hitting it untilthere was nothing Nike Air Pas Cher bigger than a fitflops sale uk cigarette lighter, then I put it Canada Goose Outlet all in agarbage bag. The crowd was cheering wildly — loud enough that I actu-ally got worried that Cheap Michael Kors Tote Bag someone far above us might Doudoune Moncler Site Officiel hear over the Pandora Store surf Cheap Michael Kors andcall nike tn pas cher the Uggs Pas Cher Soldes law.

"All right!" botas de futbol I called. günstige nike schuhe "Now, Michael Kors Handbags Discount if you'd like to accompany me, I'm Toms Factory Outlet going Ray Ban Sunglasses Online tomarch Pandora Store this Adidas NMD For Sale down to the Nike Outlet Store sea Adidas Originals Stan Smith and soak it Doudoune Moncler Pas Cher in Nike Huarache Womens Cheap salt water for ten Pandora Official Website minutes."I didn't have any takers Adidas Originals Sale at first, but air force one pas cher then Ange Nike Shox Cheap came forward and tookmy arm in her warm hand and said, "That was Michael Kors beautiful," in my ear andwe marched down to the sea together.

It was perfectly dark by the Cheap Air Max sea, and treacherous, even with louboutin heels our key-chain lights. Slippery, Christian Louboutin Shoes Outlet sharp rocks that were Nike Air Sneakers difficult enough to walk oneven without trying Nike Air Women to nike air balance six pounds of smashed Nike Air Max Goedkoop electronics in aplastic bag. I slipped once and thought I was Air max dam going to cut myself up, butshe caught me with a surprisingly strong Canada Goose Online Store grip and kept me ADIDAS NMD SALE ON LINE upright. Iwas Zapatillas Nike Air Max Baratas pulled Cheap Nike Free Run in Timberland Outlet right close to pandora beads her, close enough to smell her perfume,which nike jordan shoes smelled Nike Factory Store like new cars. Chaussure Air Max I love that smell.

"Thanks," I managed, looking into moncler jacket sale the big eyes that were further Nike Air Max Cheap mag-nified by her mannish, black-rimmed glasses. I couldn't tell what colorthey Nike Online Store were in the dark, but I Air max levně guessed something dark, based on her darkhair and olive complexion. She looked Mediterranean, maybe Greek orSpanish or Italian.

I Nike Outlet crouched down Cheap Toms Outlet Store and dipped womens nike air max the bag in the sea, Official Toms Shoes Outlet letting it fill with saltwater. TOMS OUTLET I managed to Pandora Store Sale slip a little and soak my prada outlet shoe, and I Adidas Shoes Discount Marketplace swore and shelaughed. We'd Mens Nike Air Max hardly said a word since we lit out for the ocean. Therewas suivre un envoi something magical in Nike Shox discount Sale our wordless silence.

At Canada Goose Outlet that cheap nike air max point, I Ugg Pas Cher En France had kissed a total of three girls モンクレール レディース in my life, not countingthat moment when I went back to school and got a hero's welcome.

That's not a canada goose jacket outlet gigantic number, but it's New Air Max 2017 not nike mercurial soccer cleats a minuscule Chaussure Nike Pas Cher one, either. Jordan Sneakers For Sale I Cheap Real Jordans havereasonable girl Nike Air Jordan 11 radar, and I think I could have kissed her. She wasn't144h4wt in Discount TOMS the Coach Outlet Store Online traditional sense, but Yeezy Black there's Chaussure Nike Air Max Pas Cher something about zapatos de futbol nike a girl and anight nfl store and a beach, plus Nike Tn Requin Pas Cher she was smart and canada goose jackets on sale passionate The official UGG and committed.

But I didn't kiss her, longchamp bags on sale or take her hand. Instead Cheap Nike Air Huarache we had Boutique Ugg a moment that Ican Nike Air Damen only describe Kobe Shoes Nike as spiritual. The surf, the night, the sea and the rocks,and our breathing. The moment Moncler Outlet stretched. I sighed. This had been quitea ride. I had Jordan Shoes For Cheap a lot of typing to do tonight, Ugg Pas Cher Femme putting all Yeezy Shoes Discount Marketplace those keys Air Max Kopen into mykeychain, signing them and publishing the signed Air Max 90 keys. Starting Nike Factory Outlet the webof trust.

She sighed too.

"Let's go," I said.

"Yeah," she said.

Back we went. nike sb stefan janoski It was chaussures nike pas cher a good night, that night.

Jolu waited after for his brother's friend to come by and Hyperdunk 2014 pick up hiscoolers. I Cheap Toms Shoes Outlet walked with UGGS Outlet everyone else Toms Outlet Online up new jordan releases the Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 For Sale road to the nearest Munistop and got on board. Of course, Cheap Retro Jordans For Sale none Descuentos Nike of us was Nike Air 90 using an issued Munipass. By Michael Kors Clearance that point, Xnetters huarache sneakers habitually cloned someone else's Muni passthree or nike schuhe günstig four times a day, assuming a Boost Yeezy Sale On Line new Moncler Jackets Discount Marketplace identity for every Air Max Pas Cher ride.
