JK's series 4 Spider with 205/50/16 Kumho Ecsta AST tires,

Toyo T1R 205/50/16

Kumho Ecsta 712 205/50/16

Kumho Touring AS 205/55/16

BF Goodrich g-Force Sport  205/50/16

I love it! Though it's only been about 20 miles. I ended up putting Kumho  225/40/16's all the way around. Plenty of room front and back. Ride is naturally, a little stiffer, but I like that. Turning at parking lot speeds is not too bad. The handling is fantastic. Lots of rubber meeting the road. Thanks.

Hello Charlie, 

I had the wheels mounted today.  I was and am still grinning.  It has been raining but weather permitting; I should have some photos by this weekend.  I had Toyo T1R’s size 205/50/16 mounted.  I was concerned about increased steering effort and am happy to report that it is barely perceptible.  The increased grip and turn-in precision is amazing compared to the previous 185/14’s. Hmm, now I am thinking seriously about a chassis brace.  Thanks for the new shoes for the spider.  I’ll send pics soon. 

Sincerely,

M V  Spider Veloce
