hey all,

so i'm about to order a wheel tire package from tirerack. it looks like one or other of the items is not available from my nearest warehouse (delaware). Is it a good idea to wait and save on shipping or just pay the extra $15 and get them now. I was going to ask luke but i can't get him on the phone today.

I'm getting 17" mille miglia evo 5s with dunlop sp 9090 225/45-17s. yeah baby.

oh, that's the other question, anyone know what the diff is between the 9000 and the 9090? 9090 is on special right now.

Um, not to be too critical but if you're spending hundreds of dollars on "17 mille miglia evo 5s with dunlop sp 9090 225/45-17s", who cares 'bout $15?!

Life is too short. Order them man, you won't miss the $15.

I have these wheels on my SE, got them in July 2000 before they added the #5 to them but they look the same. Nice choice!! Probably going to get the same tire again, Firestone SZ 50 EP's, great handling in the dry and the wet! Noise and harshness not any worse then the GTA's that came with the car, maybe even better, but dry and wet handling was like night and day in comparison. In downpours like we get here in Houston it felt like I was driving on dry pavement, even towards the end of the tread life there is minimal hydroplane feeling. I have about 18,000 incredibly fun miles on them but they are about worn. I can see if you take twisties and on/off ramps with vigor all the time they would wear faster. There are reviews at the Tire Rack where people got 30 or 40k miles on these, they must be driving in straight lines, a waste of a great handling tire.
