New Wheel & Tire Impression

Just got my new Ronal R28 (16x7.5) and Yoko AVS db put on this weekend. I was going to get the LV but there are no longer available in 16". Anyway, the R28 looks better on the car then the picture. It looks a bit more aggressive then the stock rim .. maybe because of the difference in offset and width (7.5 vs 7). The only problem is the Griffin center cap DOESN'T FIT !! Apprently the inside hub of the Griffin cap is just a bit larger then R28's center cap hub. RATS, I like the Griffin cap too :-((
Anyway, the AVS db is nice ! under 60MPH on normal (NYC) road they are really quite ! Depending on the road surface, you get a bit of tire noise up in the 80 range. Maybe it will change after I break it in a bit.
BTW, if you are in the NJ or metro NY area. I definitely recommend Euro-tires for stuff like tire or suspension/alignment work. It was recommended to me by my Audi buddy. It is also one of the first shop I go to that hand torques the wheel without asking (and getting a dirty look from the mechanic).
