Wheel and tire choices.. Please advise..

[aquaanox]

Im planning on selling the runflats and the white 16 inch r84's for a set of Flik Wasps or Flaken Circuit Spec (Gunmetal) rims. This if for a Hyper Blue 05 MCSA

Tire choises are between the Falken Ziex and Toyo Proxes 4[size=2]
Im also trying to decide between 17's and 18's.

Would love to hear of your opinions on these combos.. and whether i should go with 18's on a Cooper S.

~thanks in advance

Falkens
17s
18s look pants and the ultra low profile thing is done to death. But if rice/ghetto is your thing then by all means.....

I went with the Falkins and am very happy. 17's

i went from the above wheels to thinking about polished R99's and OZ superleggras and now i think im pretty sure im gonna end up with Millie Migia HT3's (17's) with Falken Ze 52's. hmmmm.. im gonna place an oder at the tirerack tomorrow.

I really like the look of the polished R99's. The Silver R99's just look a bit plain and like any other basic wheel.. Plus, i think they would be very hard to clean since the dual spokes look very close to each other. The HT3's are a "bit" lighter than R99's and though i havent seen em in person look fairly agressive. Ive also heard that these are actually powercoated vs painted. This is going to be a street setup, not for track use.
