My car originally came with virgos on it, and if you look at it, you will agree, it looked awesome. (www.cardomain.com/id/kneedsacar) The thing was, it had two different sized tires on it when i got it and i was told that the smaller ones were the right size... What a load of bs that was way wrong. They were 195/60/14. So i bought some new ones, and loved the way my car looked and handled, but it was always reving higher than it should for just going with traffic... As it turns out, these tires were almost two inches smaller in diameter than the originals... My speedo was WAY off. I went a "read" 112 mph at 6000rpms in 4th gear with those wheels... Which i think was actually about 102 or something. I don't remember, but I could find out on that site i always recommend,(http://gs.tolan-hoechst.com/tirecalc.htm) its awesome. I was soo pissed off when I found that out, spent $300ish for new tires, and they wouldn't work on my car. So i tried to sell them at the IPD garage sale, to no avail. Even with "drastic price drops" lol. So at the endo of the meet, i was pissed off, and traded them for some 740 turbo rims. I didn't care at the time that all of their tires were bald, and FAILED to realize that one of them didn't match the others. I got JIPPED HARDCORE on that trade, and am quite pissed to this day...
Good luck with selling them, I still have my unmatching wheels with bald tires, and they are NOT on my car like i wish they would be. But they don't look that great, and my Virgo rims were much better, and they had new tires on them... Damn
Peace,
Kyle
