I agree on the price comment you made. As long as they're not known to blow up on the road, I'd buy them if they were $100 a piece! It makes perfect sense unless one were an aggressive driver every day--all day. With that said, I'll probably be getting the Sumi's next go round. We have the Sumi HTR200's on our Accord (hell, for $44/apiece you can't beat it!), and we love them...

Take care,
Ox

I'm actually very happy with them. Initially they felt a bit harsh, but they broke in nicely after a few hundred miles, and now they are comfortable with good grip. They feel safe in heavy rain as well. My only slight concern is that they do tend to follow grooves in the pavement somewhat, although it's not enough to be a significant problem.

For the price they are a magnificent value, although I'm sure there are better tires out there if you disregard price.

Hope that helps,
T.

Hey Big-T, how do you like your HTRZ II's?


I have only seen the crystal style front corners available for the 99'-01' models, but I've heard there are some aftermarket ones somewhere - don't know where. I ended up getting the 95'-98' style tail lights with white blinkers so that they would match the front. When(if) I update the front to the new headlights, I will replace the tail lights as well and upgrade to the crystal style.

Hope that helps,
T.


I'm thinking about doing the same thing...the crystals are certainly available for the rears, but what about the fronts? Is the crystal style available on the front or just the whites only? And, how does it look overall, with the whites on the front and the crystals on the back?


You can get either the standard 95'-98' style with white blinkers or the "crystal" style 99'-01'. Either will fit any year. The "crystal" clear 99'-01' style is very pretty, not tacky at all like what the Civic crowd are using. I would highly recommend them.

anybody have the tail light lenses from bekkers.com for the E38? if they're anything like the new 2001 model lenses, i'm interested.. but if they're like the integra/civic racerboy clear/altezza style, i'll pass.
