Default Hustler can't touch dis shizzle dizzle. (now with more ferrari color scheme)

Finally got my Kumho XSes mounted and my street tires put on my Circuit 8s.












This combo is extremely light, I need to weigh them, I could toss them around with my pinky finger.

How/where did you get a $20 steering wheel? I'm in need.

Brain - you thought about painting the wheels?

I hate you guys and your cars that run. Hate.

Wow, I can't get over how clean your car is Brainy. Looks like that pole was one of the better things to happen to you!

Edit - That's what she said.

I think you could pick it up for like $35 with a hub..something like that.

the Koseis are painted, they used to be white and are now silver. I've considered going gunmetal or bronze with them. I won't paint these new otas.

They're great on the track and street. Nice smooth break away, don't get greasy (or atleast I couldn't get them greasy). They like ~34 psi.


<10 miles to work=1 set of tires for street and track.

Brain, please weigh them. I'm always interested in lightness in wheel/tire combos.
