I completely agree... they are definitely pretty sick and they dont seem to be on a lot of cars


Miro 111's 18x8.5 ET35 215/40R18 Frong
Miro 111's 18x9.5 ET?? Rear 225/40R18?

.... time to go pricing.

Is that the same wheel Black Jeff had on his Audi? If so, those were definitely my favorite wheels out of his different setups.

Yes Jeff had them on his Audi. You can find a set of Replica RS6 wheels for mad cheap.

i'd run 8.5's all around. there is no point in getting 9.5's other than a little more concavity. but the 8.5's have alot of concave already, it won't look as good if you aren't dumb low.

Not that I care, but my V3s (on my STi) don't go that low. No where near it.

I have Racecomp Engineering Tarmac 2s (built by KW based on the v3). Price withstanding ($3000+) it was the best purchase I've ever made for a car.

For a couple bucks more I can get the Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110 or the Falken Ziex ZE-912..... think it's worth it? 10,000 mile difference between the 512's and 912's.
