What's the name on those wheels, because links don't work to tirerack...

EDIT: P.S. - I'm in love w/ the OZ Ultraleggara's. MMM 18.8lbs 8" wide rims!

yeah your right on a little flashy but they sure are beautifull. On a black car with those shiny chrome rims its going to look amazing.

The tires are rated so much better then any other performance tire I have ever seen, even the ones 2x its price.

Those were the ones I was gonna get next year as well...there is a redline member I know with them who beats on his car harder than anyone, gets above average drag times, and they still come back for more.

Great tire for the value, if you ask me.

Are those the American Racing Rogue's? If so, I was wondering if 18x8.5 rim would have any problems with fitment? Also, I seem to recall someone saying that these weighed a ton. Don't know if you care or not about weight, just something to consider. I had been looking at the same rims but the black w/machined lip.

check the rating for them on www.tirerack.com almost too good to be true. i hear of them from a friend with an integra and he is never changing to another tire again... this guy is a tire ****....michelin was the only tire that was good in his mind....until now. he is pissed at the fact that he spent almost 3x more on his previous michelin tires for years..

yeap their american racing muscle - rogue 18x8.5 rim(very solid built to last) in tirerack its a suggested rim for stock replacement....but being a much wider rims means more rubber more traction..more aggressive stance

Sounds good. You should get them, I am very interested to see these on a black 'Balt.

Also, just got finished reading the reviews for those Exclaim's... Wow, they sound great for only $98/tire!
