New wheels for spring...

Just arrived today Ordered them last night, Tire Rack's shipping ****ing rocks. Enkei EDR-9 16x7 +45



My black painted stockers are my winter wheels now. Will update this thread when the new wheels are on the car in April.

Also got my new helmet and gloves for this year's round of autocrossing and track days.

very nice otter! Bought time you got a set haha.

Still snowing there? This winter was crazy for us in the North, but I guess it's still not as bad as some other places! Which tires did you choose to go with the Enkei's?

Regards

No snow right now, but we usually get one last snow in late march/early April.

Nothing impressive for tires, just running the same tires I had last summer. Dunlop Sport Maxx in the stock size. When I wear those out I'll switch to a 215/45/16 tire to take advantage of the wider wheel, likely either Dunlop Z1 or Hankook RS-2.

I know it's going to be awhile, but could you post pictures whenever you get them on the car?

I have a silver metallic as well and I'm looking for some new rims.

Once I get the tires mounted (in the next couple weeks) I might throw them on really quick if we get a nice day. I'm sure they'll look great. Black wheels go really well on silver and I'm glad someone finally came out with an inexpensive black wheel that didn't have a lip and wasn't 5 spoke.

I couldn't let it be an Evo only calendar. Lancers are part of this site, too This winter, if/when we do the calendar again, I'd like to see more Lancers submit photos. Action photos are preferred, so you all need to hit the autocross courses and tracks this summer and get some good shots.
