Just ordered my new wheels & tires
Sunday, September 04, 2005 11:45 AM
I'm getting RH EVO GT5's in a 17x7 with 40 offset:


And I'm getting Kuhom Ecsta 711's in a 215/45/17:


I ordered them through Wheelmax.com. I paid a total of $699 for the entire package. I almost went with an 18 inch rim, but I decided on the 17's because I wanted a nice balance of form and function.

Those look just like the rims I bought at Pep Boys on sale for $50.00 each for 18's. I got the same tires too there nice you'll like them. They do great in the rain I was doing 90 in a downpoor the week after I got them and they channel water like no tomorrow.
Your gonna love them!!

Those tires do perform well in water even though they're not the greatest, I was amazed. Nice choice in wheels

Wheels are nice but the tires suck I find, I have them as a 225/40ZR18 and I find they suck. Mine are wearing really fast too and I'm not spinning them either. But you are getting some nice wheels

Cool looking rims. Don't worry about wheelmax, I used them. Had my rims with tires on within a week. 4 months later still rolling, and sometime spinning!

The traction rating on these tires is A A so I don't know how much better you gonna find.

I wasn't looking for the best tires around, just some decent ones. I'm only putting about 20 miles on my car a week, so treadwear really isn't an issue for me. Oh, and they are real Racing Hart wheels, not just some cheap knock-offs. They're just a part of the Evolution line. You can even check and see them on their website.

/\ /\ /\ /\ Never said yours were "copies" Mine are, And for $50.00 each I dont care one bit. And the tires are good I love them as I'm sure you will. As for the mileage so far I've got about 6000 miles on them and I can't see any at all in fact it looks as tho they haven't lost any tread at all.
