I have had the same tires on my RASB (and my 350Z) - I have been very very pleased with them!

I have the exact same wheels, just different color. They are really amazing for this car. Cheap, light, and great looking. Changing the wheels and tires from stock, I went from 20kg to just 19kg per wheel/tire despite the 1" wider wheels and much wider tires. Goes to show how crappy the stock setup is.

Here's a pic of mine from last summer:

MR wheels are cheaper, look better, are stronger, and come in the correct size. I am going to vote no on these.

I like my wheels to sit flush with the side of the car. These don't. Plus, I would run at minimum a 245 tire on this platform. That is better suited to an 8.5" wheel.

Not to mention, the MR BBS wheels are lighter than these. There is no way of looking at this that makes these a good choice in my book.

True... True... But at least I don't have Evo rims on a Ralliart.
