Steel Grey is a great color. I so wanted to go with the 215/45/16 azenis but needed a tire to get me through the wet summers here in Colorado. Good choices in tires and wheels.

Steel Grey Subzero's gets my vote.

The Grids look really cheap.

I plan on driving with the stock GSR michilins....

If I feel something really bad happenning when/if snow hits, ill get something thats more for snow and keep it on the gsr wheels. I got a few sets so that isnt a problem.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



What do you guys think, should I get the cheap combination subzero's? or step up to some SSR Competitions that are gunmetal with a polished lip?

Like in this picture: http://www.geocities.com/dj_spek99/dcivic.jpg (you might have to open another window to get it to work)
or

or

the only negative thing about them that i see is their center cention seems kind of boring and their price is also pretty high.

opinions?

SSR comps are sick wheels but you can't compare the rotas to the SSR's. They cost like three times the amount. If you can afford the SSR's, get them and treat they good.

= Steel Gray SubZeros.

I would've opted for the Azenis myself but I just heard too many bad things about them in the rain/min. snow.

As far as Rotas go, steel grey looks gun-metal and gun-metal looks black. I know, I've had both.

You could get the formula-1 SSR comp knockoffs...

15lbs in 16X7
12.5lbs in 15x6.5

There was a groupbuy for 16's with 215/45/16 azenis for like $950 going a while back.

Here's a pic of the Subzero Gunmetal on a Prelude. Great choice for the tire.

I know JP got a bronze set on his white teg, they look pretty sweet...i bet they'd look nice. some WRX's run this setup...



more pictures: HERE

Are those 17's on the lude? And are you refering to the estesa's being good tires or the aziens?

Hey on that white teg, what size are they? They look like 17's with a slight drop.

Here's a prelude with 17 bronze subzeros. This should give you an idea of how bronze will look like on black.
