Kumho releases the first 15-series sidewall tires

For that "I dipped my wheels into a vat of rubber" look

How would the XF look with 22" rims I wonder!

I'm thinking that might be a pretty STIFF ride on anything with a bump in it.

Ricers go crazy over those rubber band tires lmao. They will sell a lot of those I bet, you will see those kids driving down the road with what appear to be bare rims then when you get next to them you will see the black rubber bands on there. The first pothole they hit and bye bye rim.

Re: Kumho releases the first 15-series sidewall tires

looks like someone stretch a rubber band over a wagon wheel.

I preffer a 17" rim on the crossfire myself, these 18-19" rims are dogs for handling....
