and what is that? to talk about the mods that you can do because of how limited your lil xi really is when it comes to real mods

 

i bet youre going to buy the 452s anyway lol

i wont believe you until i see a receipt that you bought the Nittos

 

Not a lot of reviews out there on the 452's. And if you look at those reviews I've put together in this thread before running your dirty little mouth you'll see that NT05's reviews blow the Falkens away. My only worry is handling in heavy rain, but I think that AWD will compensate for any shortfalls of the near-slick tires.

 

i had both falken 452s and re-01s and from experice, the re-01 BLOWS the 452s out the water. i had re760s mounted on the stockers and with 18X8s all around and they seem to have about the same amount of grip as the 452s that i have on now and i have 8.5f and 9.5r

 

Thank you! That's what is making me think NT05's will handle waaaay better than the 452's - they are more of a RE-11 competitor, while 452's are really more of a Hankook and RE760 competitor.

I just hope that those stiff sidewalls won't end up cracking my BBS's all the time. Though, from what I know BBS makes some kick-ass strong rims

 

if you end up mounting your bridgestone to your BBS make sure they are careful when mounting. my friend took his rc-t4s to a ghetto shop and had them install for 8 bucks a wheel and they scratched them up when they put the wheel on. you need a tire mount with micro fiber so it wont scratch

 

Yeah, I know. I'm actually paranoid about this - there are no non-ghetto tire shops around my area I'll probably have to go to that fancy area, where Calton services his cars - Long Island LOL yeah, no, seriously, even the so-called "professional" shops near me all use people who don't give a rat's ass about scratched rims.

Thanks for reminding me!

PS I wish there was a proper modding shop in Bklyn. I've never checked out 212 - maybe they have their stuff together more than others.

 

go to motorcepts =] i doubt john will mess up your wheels haha

 

Maybe. I've still to see the shop IRL anyway.

 

watch hell still get 452s but he just wont tell anyone for a while lol
