Beautiful LFL, great looking and great quality wheels. I'm glad you selected those, they were my vote on your old poll 
.
Martialart, if you'd like input on your wheel choice, please start a new thread in the Tires & Wheels forum and not hijack this one. Thanks.

thanks johnee , martial gs4fun airattck ,
jcramair1 those wheels ya got look familar as well
to those thinking about upping from 17 or 18 to 19in , consider it , i feel no diff in ride quality , handling has gotten better , acceleration has been affected , but then again the ssr are light compared to the 18 cast wheels i had.. i think most of my comfort is derived from the choice of these new goodyears, they are unbelievable , they are sooo quiet , very cushy but very very responsive , responds instantly and noooo tramlining following crowns in the road or grooves.. i went to take a cloverleaf type exit off I75 yesterday , i hit the curve at about 90 or so , and man my springs could not handle the amount of grip these tires can provide , i got deep in the curve and had to slow down , not because the tires were squeeling or giving any indication of letting loose but i was exper body roll to some degree.. i bet if i had on the Daizen springs and bilstein heavy duty shocks i could have held that corner and possibly create a 4 wheel drift , man they are awesome.. you should see the thickness of the rime protector.. its designed to guard against slight curbing but also designed to absorb heavy inpacts from potholes , goodyear did their homework
