Well, I polled you guys awhile back about rims and most of you seemed to agree with my choice to go for TE37's. I finally gave up on ever getting my Buddy Clubs so I ordered the Volks yesterday from Final Stage in fla. Can't wait... thanks for all the input!!! ;) (the Buddy Clubs will probably arrive tomorrow) :D

16x7 with the 42mm offset wrapped in 205/45/16 Yoko Parada Spec 2's... I spent the whole freggin' afternoon tearing up the streets. These rims are LIGHT - 5.2kg. They stop on a dime and cornering input is silly!!! :D I'll get a digital camera as soon as possible. ;)

i had the parada spec 2's and realized i wasn't happy with them after i got the yoko avs es100's. i'm told i will hate the es100's after i get the falken azenis sport rt-215 (on order)...

Hmmm... so far I would have to say that I prefer the Bridgestone S-03's to the Paradas. The Paradas have a softer sidewall and are made of a softer compound I believe. They also require a higher pressure setting. I think they are good tires but I am adjusting my driving style to fit. They are very grippy but soft!!! I am meeting with my dad tonight for dinner and he has agreed to take some pics for me. :D I will post later tonight hopefully!!! ;)

It ended up costing me about $600.00CDN per wheel in total - no tax - better than if I had bought them in Canada. ;)
