/\ Those Titan satin titanium T-S5's in the pics above from r712 sure have a similar look to them as the metallic grey NSX Y spoke wheels..

Love the look. :thumbsup:

Interested to hear your thoughts on the Falkens. Have heard good things about them. They peaked my interest at about $110 cheaper then the Michelin PS4S in this size. Thanks.

I don't have too much experience with many different tires, but I definitely feel that they're worth the price. They feel pretty grippy in both dry and wet and I do like the sidewall stiffness for looks. As far as ride comfort goes, they're way better than stock - even with my aftermarket springs. There is a little floatiness compared to stock, but that's probably due to being 35 profile. Road noise, I'd also say about the same as stock, if not a little quieter (tbf, I do usually drive with my music pretty loud).

Overall, I'm really happy with them. If there's anything specific you'd want to know, I can try to give some more insight.

They said back order until end of Feb.
all of them will say that. A friend of mine had the same issue. All these companies do is push the order through titan7 and they ship from titan7 (from what I can tell).

I think my friend tried vivid racing and was told Dec...then nothing, so he ask this month and now they said February lol.
