Baby got new shoes...and Denver got new snow!!

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/19741/dscn1382.jpg"></center><p>17" AT Italia Flash Sport w/ Yokohama AVS Sport to replace last summer's POS mille miglias. I haven't done a real test of the AVS's yet. Initial impression is that they don't seem to "hunt" around on the highway quite as much as my old S03's, but they do seem a little bit noisier. My buddy at Discount Tire is simply THE BEST!

Nice rims, but it seems like there's an unusual amount of wheel gap.

The stock gap really becomes noticable with 17s and 18s IMHO...

Next step is some decent springs. Not just to reduce the gap, but to stiffen that soft ride up a bit in the curves.

which MM's did you have?

Discount Tire talked me into buying mine. I now have six of them. Two have been bent and fixed and are waiting for me to hit the next pothole. I believe the soft wheel prevented suspension damage during one incident. Something has to give.
