Ordered mb wheels 'twists' today

[Mustang Matt]

Not my favorite but NTB quoted me nearly the same cost for just tires so I decided to get a wheel/tire combo from discount tire direct.

Went with 215/35/18 falcon 912 tires. I do 100% highway driving and these have a 40,000 mile tread warranty.

My Goodyear F1s lasted a year and a half for about 33,000 miles. I still think I might have some other front end problem. I ordered new sway bar end links but I might go ahead and replace the pass front wheel bearing (replaced the driver front last year).

I've got 5 chewed up stock wheels with tires if anyone has a need. lol.

I guess they're probably worth more recycling though.

 

[njaremka]

i think those will look nice. good choice.

 

[Ride92]

nice wheel choice, I've been looking for something like that, that looks almost stock but nicer if that makes any sense. Post some pics up when you get them on, would you?

 

[Tom03es]

Yeah, those are nice.

And those chewed up stock wheels, someone will want to buy them.

 

[ucMP3]

I like those as well. Very clean. (yes)

And as for the MP3 Racingharts, I have 6 of em, lol. There's a market for them. They look really good on p5's, too! Throw them up f/s on here and depending on price, I bet they move pretty easily. I can throw in 1-2 that I have extra too. (lol2)

Really? Actually, they aren't "that" bad. I'll take some pics tonight and put them up in the classifieds.

wheels look similar to the mz6 stock sport wheels, which I've always liked.

As for the stockers, I'm sure someone would be willing to refinish them.

Ya, the Racingharts are a good looking wheel. Too bad they are freakin cinder blocks...

yeah, I'm amazed the difference dropping the extra fat of my MSP versions made.

Ya, I need to upgrade and make the RH's my dedicated winter wheels. Next spring/summer maybe...

 

[Mustang Matt]

Are the stock wheels heavy?

 

[ucMP3]

Are the stock wheels heavy?

Yes. ~23lbs ea w/out rubber.

unless I pick something else up, thats exactly what my RH's will be this winter. Unless my rents lemme take their beater of a subaru that is.

And yes, the MSP RH's are 21 lbs each, as opposed to my current wheels, which are 13.8 and 15.4 respectively.

 

[Mustang Matt]

And here they are installed.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

I think I'd like em better as 17s, but they look good!

 

[Mustang Matt]

Yah they're a little big with those tiny rotors.

 

[shane02pro5]

Look good...a bit less wheel gap would be nice

 

[Mustang Matt]

My other cars are lowered, this one is the one I can drive without worrying about wheel rub and bottoming out.

 

[FunkyBuddha]

They're alright. Look like p5 wheels.

 

[Mustang Matt]

You're probably thinking of the mazda 6 wheel.
