i always vote for nitto NT-555's...damn good tire in dry and wet conditions, low road noise, and my first set lasted 3 years after being lowered with no alignment...they're pretty cheap too at american tire...i think like 125 each

I have Nitto Neo Gens and love them.

Enkei Evo 5's are a nice inexpensive wheel choice. I would love to pick some up for myself, lol.

Good choice.
