WTF?! I looked on tire rack and I don't see any options for a 17'' rim. Fuck that shit. I wanna see what grass roots motorsports has to say about them before I'll give up my azenis or rs2's.

I looked around a bit last night and couldn't really find much info. How are these supposed to compare to rs2's and azenis? For some reason I was getting the impression these might be a bit more aggressive.

The closest size for me would be $125 lol. So close though... I need 215/40/17 and they only have 215/45/17... i'd rub with that.

They have a 140 treadwear (who knows if its a real 140 though), definately cheaper than toyo r1r's and re01rs.

Ill be sticking to Z1's or azenis, they are fairly priced for performance. I might be getting some wheels soon that have RA1's with a few passes left on em, then back to a street tire.
