Just ordered CCW's
505A's... they seem to be everbody's favorite (including mine)... with with 18/19, although the temptation was there to go larger. The CCW folks said they'd guarantee the fit to work work my Eradispeeds... I'm getting BFG's on them... Pilot Sports just brought the price up too high this time around... the fact that I'm up at 4:30 AM writing this might give you an idea of why I can't sleep ! Two weeks wait... arghhh... it's gonna be a long two weeks !

Outstanding selection. That is what I have on my 03AE except that they are chromed. Now comes the fun, get ready for all the complements and questions as to what kind are they, how much did they cost and where can I get a set.
ENJOY!!!

You know us Canadians maybe big and strong on the outside but deep down inside we are very sensitive.

For those of you who own the CCW 505As or the ones with the SP500s...how much do the wheels weigh? Especially the 18 inch one and the 19s.

I think you made a good choice. I have 19s all the way around and have very slight rubbing under breaking while turning on the fronts.
