155 wheels and tires



Guys,

	I just changed the wheels on my 155 to some cheesy looking 5 spoke "TITANIUM"
wheels. They're softline wheels, sorta look like the TSW Stealth. I mounted
Pirelli P4000E 205/55/15 on them. Wow nice and comfy but the tires aren't too
great for spirited (roadrage/outrage triggering) driving I'm used to 8-).
These tires should be avoided coz they plain suck at the aforementioned mode
of driving.
	My old P 700Z were all shot due to the nose heavy V6. Somehow I don't think
those P-700Zs are any good. I prefer the Falken GR-Betas on my Milano. I'm
thinking of getting a set of 16" TSW EVO or Hockenheim-R for the 155 with some
Yoko AVSes. I saw a 155 with the exact (16" TSW EVOs) setup (the car was
slightly lowered) and it looked great! And also several 155s with those nice
16" black speedlines in London. I even tried to drag race a GTV TS-16V near
Hyde Park. Well I didn't know it was that quick. Also have photos of a 156 TS
with red MOMO interior and the Supra wing!!!! Weeeeeeeee!!! In real life those
156s are BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
	Anyway I'm still waiting for the stebro headers for my Milano. I have to smog
the car in 2000 and though, I wonder if the headers will give me a headache.

'96 155 V6 (20,000 miles)
'87 Milano Gold 3.0 (175,000 miles)

p/s has anyone out there fitted stainless steel headers for his/her 155 V6 (I
know someone just traded in his 75 2.5 for a 155 V6 so fess up). Any mods
done? no?
