Roads are Ok I guess.. but you cant compare them to the UK. Every time I go over 120kmph the DTC kicks in...

the PS2 look hot and they hug the road like nothing I have ever felt before. The 166's and PS2 are the extra set of balls I needed to hit 250kmph over the weekend...


Enjoy...

Exactly how I felt when I put mine on -- love 'em!!

Contgrats and enjoy...

I finally got my new rims and tyres installed yesterday (Thanks Tony AKA quad_m for a very well packaged shipment sent all the way to India ).... they look absolutely beautiful . Thank you everyone for the tyre recommendation... the PS2 look hot and they hug the road like nothing I have ever felt before. The 166's and PS2 are the extra set of balls I needed to hit 250kmph over the weekend...


Enjoy...
Suchet - Glad to know everything works out with you and tony at the end. Those rims look awesome.

looks hot...
Wish we could lower the cars here but the roads can sometimes get a bit too bad for lowered cars.
that car would look sweet with a drop.
