the 6ul's in Nickel finish are absolutely beautiful. I got mine in last week. I can't WAIT until the bodywork is done so I can put them on.

I highly recommend the Hankook RS2's. I just put a set on my Civic this weekend (DSP autocross prepped car), and man do they stick to the road. If my miata was going to be a street-driven car, they would be my tire of choice for it as well.

The first thing that happens when guys go to wide sticky rubber on a 1.6 is that they break the dif. Add a turbo to that equation and you're going to need an upgrade quickly.

Really dude, use the shift key and proper grammar, at least in longer sentences, this is not CRnet, you WILL get banned, mods here don't tolerate that unless you give them buttsex. :gay:
Don't get 16's or 17's if you are performance oriented. Get some wide 15's (x7, x7.5, x8) and you'll be good for some 225's, bigger than that you will proboably need to do either flares or some major rolling. For that you are better of at CRnet, should be lots of info over there.

"cuz"? Seriously? Use punctuation, ------. I'm sure you're laughing right now thinking I'm just some guy from the internet bet let me tell you now boy you pissed off the wrong ************. I've had training with any team of spec ops warriors you can think of. I'm already one of the best in my state in clandestine ops and I can hit a dinner plate at 350yards with a H&K Mark 23 mod 0 .45 caliber pistol. My uncle infiltrated the secret Egyptian Commando group called Thunderbolt 777 and nobody even noticed him. He trained with them and even did HALO jumps in the Sinai with them and he didn't even know how to speak Arabic. This isn't me bragging, this is just to tell you that you're messing with one of the baddest ************* in the country.

To the OP... hey man, we're mostly just ******* with you, but help yourself out and listen to the helpful hints guys are posting.

Also, it's generally a good idea to put a list of your mods in your signature so people don't have to guess what your setup is everytime you make a post.
