New Gold OZ Ultraleggera

Ugh got some gold thangs! They arrived last night but I took a quick pic of them as soon as I got home, the sun was going down so its pretty crappy light. But they are 17x8 wrapped in 245/45 Dunlop Direzza Star Spec Z1's. I had SSR GT2's (17x8.5 with the same size tire) and the GT2's with tires were 41 lbs and the new wheels were 42 lbs, even though the news ones felt lighter for some reason. One set of tires could be heavier than the other too, but close enough.

Now that I have had the tires and wheels for a couple weeks I can really say now, that they are the best tires I have ever had period. The Azenis's ST-115's used to feel really loose feeling (not grip wise just sidewall flex wise) when I would take a off ramp, these Direzza's are just rock solid. The Pilotsport PS2's felt pretty good also but they were 40 series so I thought the reason that the Azenis felt sloppier was because of the 45 size, but the Direzza's are much grippier The only downside of the Direzza's is that they pick up allot of gravel being as soft as they are, and the Azenis's were much quieter.
