New rims and tires installed- pics

[phenryiv1]

The rims are a set of 15 x 7" BBS rims that were a dealer performance package item on an Infiniti Q45a. These rims have a 36mm offset and 7" width. After installing them in the car, I see that the lip on them is about 1" further out tham the OEM BBS rims, giving them stance that looks like aftermarket. The fact that the rims are only 13 lb. each does not hurt either.

I decided to go with Falken Ziex-512 tires in a 215-60-15 size. I got them for about $70 each with lifetime balance and road hazard protection (retail on them is $73 each for the tires alone).

I am pleased with the new ride, and the traction seems to be great, especially for a tire in this size. I had worried that they might not be a comfortable tire, but that is not the case at all.

Thanks. I don't knwo the weight of the wheel and tire combo, but I remember the Ziex Ze-512 were one of the lightest tires in that size.
