I'm running those tires now and like them.

Besides, I like having something on my car that says V12.
LOL

Just had Pilot Sports mounted on my newly powder coated rims today. Can't wait to install these new shoes.

I bought the tires at tire rack and had them shipped. They were $ 360.00 less than a quote from a local vendor.
I like doing business with local people but not the price has to be at least close.

Awesome! Looking forward to hearing your review too. I have the 166's too (car came with them ), but as most on this forum know, I hate the 166's. These new tires are for my 20" R10's.
