Default New tires. Oh yes! >=]

Finally got my new tires for my 15" rims. Ordered 'em last week off of http://www.1010tires.com Yokohama A032r's in 205/50/15. I went for the H compound. Since my hatch isn't a daily driver anymore I thought I'd give these a try. I've wanted 'em for a long time. Finally bit the bullet and bought a set.

The tires:

So pretty


Look at that tread pattern! :cool:

Damn those are nice, but why didn't you just bite the bigger bullet and invest in slicks if its not a daily driver?

bumnah, what year acura did those stock rims come from? i've been looking for them at my local junkyard but all they have are gsr blades

i like the tread on those yoko's but my azenis will do since they basically have no tread at all.

I'm going to assume he was talking about the 1996 GSR wheels and not the tires.

Thanks folks.


I wanted 15's so I could get bigger brakes up front, and I wanted a little wider tire.
So I got the tires I wanted and some cheap rims to put 'em on till I can afford the rims I really want. CP-035's....

Anyways got the tires mounted. Turns out one of the rims is bent in the middle where it meets the hub.

So pissed and sad at the same time...

oh well. atleast they're cheap to replace.
