Damn! they are awesome! I have 215/45ZR-17 on 17"x7.5" and damn these tires rock, if anyone is looking for a recommendation on tires. Get these. I was taking curves at twice the speed I would with those wimpy 195/70R-14s. I have yet to make them squeal.

I hear ya brother. I have 225/40ZR18 on mine and I agree they are great. I've been running them for about 6 mos. and they aren't even the least bit worn yet. Well worth the money.

hey Blkout- Do your tires rub with those 225s? I went from a 235 to 215 because mines rubbed like hell. I have Eibach Sportlines with a camber kit. Was wondering what your set up was and if you rolled the lip back in the wheel well.

Sorry for the late reply. I don't have any rubbing of my tires, front or rear. I haven't rolled the rear openings either. I have Skunk2 CO's on now, so I can't really say exactly what the drop is. I have it set-up right now so that there is about 2" between the top of the tire & bottom of opening in rear, and about 1" in front. No camber kit on front & $15 kit on the rear. Hope this helps.

If there anything like the RE71 or better I agree but coming from 195/70/14's the Goodyear Eagle GT+4s would be a transformation.

i have bridgestone potenza RE910's 215/45/17 myself. i dont know how they compare to the 730 but i like them. also i've been running them for about 6 months (last summer, july- sept. and this year, march-now) and there isnt any noticable wear. great tires. also if you ever put on the stock 14's for whatever reason (ie winter) you will be disgusted with the handling and feel of the car. the first time i switched back to 14's i seriously thought i messed something up when i changed them.

i gots da yoka-mama 520's and now that i got those along with a front camber kit i can corner like a mother!

Speed Kills!
If you want to live forever buy a Honda!

As soon as it stops raining here I can get some new pics. I should have the new computer build in a few days and be able to scan in new pictures. But until there is no rain I'll just leave her in the garage. Damn thing is I think it's suppose to rain all week.

But besides the pictures, the whole website needs to be updated. I'm behind a few mods.

I'll post pics here of the new wheel tire combo once I get them done.
