Thanks, the Invo is alright. Nothing special. It will still spin really bad through 1st and 2nd gear if you launch it. I'll most likely be changing them out for something else when these wear out.
R888 tires ! FTW lol

They aren't that great from a mileage standpoint, right? More a track tire, too? Are they quiet?

They have my desired fitment, too!! 285/35/20 and 315/30/20:thumbsup:

No they arent great for mileage. They are something the awd crowd uses as a half assed drag radial a lot. I tried a pair on my sti, when they didnt cut it i just put real radials on or use slicks. They are definitely not quiet, complete opposite . If you use them as what they are intended for they are pretty decent. However you can reach their limit quickly and when too hot they start to give up progressively. They are dangerous in the wet. Its not something id daily.

If they had the sizes I need and I didn't live in Florida with flash floods every day I would consider them haha.
Id probably say fuck it and still put them on the car.

Nothing JDM about XXR's. And that style is more of a BBS-mesh style, making it more Euro...:lol:
Well, they are made in Taiwan. :shrug: So I guess they are TDM? :D

For the record, the XXR's are made by the same company that makes Work wheels.

Work wheels are made by work in Japan. Do they really make XXR wheels?
