Wheels, rather, not tires.

Lately I've been on a slump with mis titled threads.

Apologies!

nice tires (um wheels, lol). im not a big fan of three spokes but you'd definitely be different (tCs and otherwise!) i believe modified mag put those on their project tC last year. they also had a white tC. it did look pretty sick. i have that issue somewhere...

Right, but advan makes them in the size I want as well.

That website just gives me an idea of what they might look like on my ride.

Which is sweet!

The RG-II's were the one's I wanted on my WRX, but I dunno, I can't get over the three spoke design.

I rode in a T/T'd RX-8, with a Midnight black paintjob, with red effects, and it had the red/black ADVAN SUPER's on it.

Was 100% dead sexy.

I have the RGII's on my Evo. I love them. I almost bought the rx-8 but went with the tC instead. Boosted rx-8? Nice! My buddy has a red FD, sweet looking car.

So what're your goals with the tC?

Just a daily driver?

Not sure yet. But I got the s/c TRD springs and struts, and the factory body kit. I'm thinking of getting the 9.5 pulley, but I think I should get the lsd first cause i'm already spinning the front tire. LOL. I guess I got spoiled with AWD.

The tc will be my DD.

The way I see it so far, my priority list is:

1. Exhaust
2. Spring, Strut, Sway
3. Intake, Headers, Mid/S-pipe
4. LSD
5. S/C
6. Wheels

The stock size for now should be sufficien, but I wont need 17x8.5's until I start putting out more power. Not to mention the LSD

I'm not quite sure what Intake is best compatible with the TRD S/C though, so I'm stuck on which one to buy.

Same with the Headers, S-pipe and Mid-pipe.
