yeah well when your married sometimes you can't get another set of wheels whenever you want (especially when they would be your 5th set).

Wheels look really good. I'm surprised you went for 452's, after spending so much money on the wheels I wouldn't have thought you would put such cheap rubber on there.

it came down to the tire style and build that i need to pull this off
only 452s and re01s have the sidewall build and stretch that is really needed from what I have researched and with the negative camber being run in the front and rear its just not all that economically smart to be replacing re01s every six months or so
plus the 452s are being run on my shops cars and they swear by them so ill try em out and if they flop i can exchange them for something else

I went with 452's on my old VW since I needed to go for the stretched look to get my RH's to fit. That car was only a 2.slow and I burned through the rubber pretty quick and had to replace 2 tires due to sidewall bulges in a year. I hope you have better luck then I did!
me too
like i said if they dont work i can and will get something else, but finding these sizes in the right build compounds isnt easy and it sucks doing all that research

hellaflush is great but running like -6 camber is just stupid and dangerous
ill be able to keep this within factory specs of -2 in the rear and around -1.8 in the front
