New wheels,tires/what do you think?

Hi everyone,
I put the new wheels on last week. I hated them at first but, now they're growing on me. I put on new tires this past monday and I have to say they suck !!!!! I bought Dunlop SP Sport Signature. The salesman at Goodyear sad they were a much better tire than the G/Y RSA. The issue with them is that the side walls are much softer and the center of the tire is raised making car nearly uncontrolable under hard accelleration and loose in the turns. If your looking at these tires please save your time and money and buy something else. I'm taking them back and buying Eagle f1's.

Rims look OK- not a fan, but dont look bad.

as far as the tires- IMO you said enough when you said Dunlop

I like those wheels...kind of a mesh.
Dunlop summer and all-season tires are the worst. Our Proteges came with
an SP series tire...I couldn't get them off fast enough!
The winter tires are nice, though. I got a lot of miles on my Graspics.

Hey thank's! I took the Dunlops back and bought the Goodyear Eagle F-1 All Season. I like them. They stick really well in the turns and have a nice quiet ride but the side walls are a little softer than the RSA's.
