The wheels look terrific. Yes I agree that it does need to be lowered.

Heh. But nothing beats it in the snow!

I think I picked a pretty good wheel considering our fucked up options though

Thanks for the compliments all.

I really like the Falkens. As I said previously, the Falkens are sticky, like night and day compared to the Continental All seasons.

I would recommend them based on the 500~ miles I've driven on them thus far.

I've never been a fan of Nitto tires since I had the 555's on my Acura CL. I found them to be lacking in road noise and sidewall flex.

Good luck with your decision.
