Hardly a new topic,but I would appreciate viewes on the improvement which Prodrive wheels and Pirelli tyres might bring. I will need to replace the original Bridgestones after Christmas,so the option to up grade beckons,but is it worth the expenditure?

that'll be like this then
which makes it look like this
the Prodrive 18" wheel is substantially lighter than the standard STi wheel, so unsprung weight is decreased. Prodrive springs drop the car about 22mm, which apart from the asthetics also seems to remove some of the low speed chop from the ride. I've been in a few standard cars, and none of them are as settled as mine on the road. Well worth doing IMHO
