18" Konig's and Yokohama'a

[Elwenil]

Ok, I'm probably going to order my rims and tires this Friday for my all stock 02 ES, provided that my paycheck is here on time. I am going for 18"x7.5" Konig Imagine ('http://http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findWheelDetail.do?step=details&productType=WHEEL&source=vehicle&index=87&productCodeIndex=65000url') with the Opal finish, and Yokohama Parada Spec-2 ('http://http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findTireDetail.do?step=details&productType=TIRE&source=vehicle&index=1&productCodeIndex=41445url') tires in a P215/40ZR-18.
My question is this, does anyone have Konigs, or the Parada Spec-2 tires, or any wheel tire combo like this and how do you like them? I'm mainly looking to see how they fit, and how well the tires perform, as far as treadwear vs. grip, etc. So what do you think guys? Thanks!

you want to order 225/40zr18 not 215 (i could explain it more but just trust me, i have explained it a milliion times on this board). i have konig monsoon 18x7.5 +45 w/ 225/40zr18 parada spec2's. i hate my konigs bcuz they are soft... i have had to buy 6 total. maybe the newer konigs are better but i will never buy another konig wheel.

Ok, just got home from working out of town, and there on my carport were my new rims and tires. I couldn't wait to put them on, but I did so I could get some paint to spray on my brakes. Having drums is bad enough, but rusty, crappy looking drums is ridiculous. Now they are on and look totally awesome! 8) I took Reelax's advice and went with the P225/40-18 and I'm glad that I did. The Parada Spec-2s look terrific and they handle really well as far as I can tell with only about 30 miles on them. I wasn't sure how these rims and tires were going to look on my G, and started thinking I'd picked out the wrong ones, but after seeing them on the car, I'm totally stoked. I'll post some pics of my G and the new rims and tires later this weekend. You guys let me know what you think.

glad everything worked out. REMEDY has the same rims and they look sweet on his car, so they should look great on yours as well.
