Gotta do the dance first (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Just got the green light from the wife to purchase new rims and tires for the 914, now the tough decision will be 15, 16 or 17 inch rims and tires....I'm leaning towards the 15's since more tire choices are available and after my last little fender bender with the 17" rims on the C2, I obviously cannot tell when my tires are low on air (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Decisions, decisions (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I'd go for 16's. Definitely a lot of rubber choices out there.
I just had to get new rear tires for the 944 turbo, one of the expensive-assed Michelin MXX3's couldn't hold air for some reason, but they have a bitchin' stiff sidewall that let me limp to the gas station every morning til the new tires came in. I cheaped out TireRack was selling 255/40/17 Pirelli P6000 for $87. I couldnt pass it up since I'm probably gonna sell her this summer. By the way I think 16's are definitely the way to go for a teener! |
