Vapour 17"s

[DHC09]

Got the..

Advanti Vapour 17" x 7"

Fulda Carat Exelero 215/40R17

..fitted yesterday and went trigger happy today :D

I think the wheels are quite unique and suits the black rolla quite well (hence why i got it :D )

And i must thank Northy and SB for their tip on the tires... they're amazing thus far (will give another feedback once their worn in a bit more)

polish your car much? thats rediculous shine!

[Saiya]

[DHC09]

Thanks for the comments :D

Yeah gotta watch out for the curbs.. didnt have any problem with the previous set for 3 years so sud be fine with these ;)

The car is not polished, just used the "Armourall Wash&Wax" wash solution and dry with synthetic chamois B) easy!

Fulda update:

- Dry: Very very nice and grippy. I've never driven on preformance tires prior to these so can't compare with others, but the traction is impressive and a comfortable ride too

- Wet: Drove though a strom on the highway over the weekend, and i was amazed to say the least. No aquaplating and went through puddles like it wasnt there :o it just cut straight through and didnt feel a thing

Naturally I'm very happy with these.. (perhaps i've just experienced the world of performace tires )

just be careful during parrallel parking, those spokes are in danger.

Hey what offset are these rims and do you experience any rubbing using the 215/45?

[MR22ZZ]

he has 215/40 r17 so I'm assuming they wouldn't scrub ;)

ohhh

215/40..... i thought it was 215/45

I need new glasses :P

[DHC09]

yup no problems with these tyres/wheels

the spokes dont really stick out as much as they seem... but yes.. im very careful with these ;)

[vin corolla]

wow...very unique....what's that offset?

Is it dangours to do reverse parking? since the rim is sticking out so much? I always hit the gutter with my hup cap...

[DHC09]

The offset is close to the stock wheels (cant remem the exact number :P ) anyhow it fits puuurrfectly on the rolla. u might be able to see them at ur local wheel shop but they do go pretty quick.. i had to back order mine. its always nice to see ppl staring at them while waiting at the lights B)

if u can park, its not danagerous :P :D but yes i do take extra care with these. im much more concerned with other ppl hitting u from the front/back than me hitting the kurbs ;)
