Tires are 205/50/16.

They are up next for replacement. The car had a few issues when I picked it up just trying to work everything out. The previous owner had done some tasteful mods just wasnt very clean in his work. I have removed the a/c and as it was inoperable and have cleaned up the wiring for the HID kit. The stock seats were replaced with ep3 si seats so I fixed that. Lastly the valve cover had been painted and reinstalled with a spark plug tube seal missing so I took care of that.

Started with fixing the TPS and a few other small things. I just replaced the cap and rotor, spark plugs as well as the plug wires last night. New fuel filter and pcv valve going on tonight.

As for tires they are Nexen N2000 which I am not a fan of cheap tires to begin with. They do have some camber wear and that has already been adressed with an alignment and by raising the suspenion.

I have some Brembo factory replacement rotors as well as akebono pads on the way. Tires are still undecided between Goodyears and Michelins. Size will be 205/45/16. I am not 100% sure on the wheels for now. Not my first choice but brand new, clean, free of any damage.

Overall the car is coming along nicely and was much cleaner than my previous Si.

Future mods include

Hytech Header
Intake manifold and throttle body
Cams (Skunk2 Pro 1 or 2)
12:5:1 B20

Motor in the works.

If anyone is up for photohoping the wheels to black, green and bronze/gold Id greatly appreciate I have considered powdercoating them.

Yeah theyre too big, should be 205/45/16. There are some good tires in that size. RE11, BFG KDW, S Drive, PE2, ES100, etc. Lower it a little it will look great.

The car does have coilovers and it was "slammed" it wasnt to practical as a daily driver although it looks better that way. Im sure it had to due with the tire somewhat so Ill address that when I get some new rubber.

As far as the lip goes, I had one but it was stolen and I havent deicded on what lip im going to buy next.

Although this isnt a discussion about tires I say Fuzion FTL.
You get what you pay for.

Im a michelin fan so Im sure Ill go with them or similar.
