Default Is this the wheel you're talking about?

If so, very nice! I think the set up you mentioned is a great idea. Just shop around for the best prices (I don't think TireRack price-matches). But they usually have reasonably low prices anyway...especially on sales/close-outs (like my Speedlines I bought from them).

Default Excellent tire choice; rims are of more personaly taste but

I am not all that impress with the look especially consider that they are much heavier than the Superleggeras.
IMO, the GSD3 Goodyear F1 makes the best compromise between ride/noise/dry/wet/treadwear than any other tires out there. The treadwear is rated at 280 which is much higher than most max performance tires that are rated at 220 yet the grip level is comparable.
