A couple factors...
1. I recently started my own financial planning business and need to lay low financially for a while.
2. I just wore out my 17" snows and was able to buy some Kumho 712s mounted and balanced on my 17s for $100 to get me through the summer! Yeah, they're used, but they have plenty of tread left for a few track days and regular driving until the snow flies again. Then, I'll likely get some ContiExtremeContacts for the winter, since the 17s are my winter wheels anyway and I wouldn't want to run the Kumhos in the snow.
Basically, I just bought the Fliks at the wrong time. If I had known I was going to find the Kumhos for so cheap right when my snows were dying and I quit my regular job, I don't think I would have bought the Fliks.

No it's not...his has the rivits, and is the Artic, the Wasp does not have rivits
check out the difference in the pics that are shown...His has rivits, not only in the pic he posted from Edgeracing.com, but in real life, they actually have the rivits. His rims are exactly what he is showing.
