Smile JNC 021/Sumitomo GTR Z III

Anyone have any experience with these wheels or tires? I can't seem to find any evo x on these jnc 021.

Planning to get 18x9.5 chrome black with 265/35/18.

I don't plan to race in them or anything, I just wanted it for looks.

Thanks in advance

HTR not GTR

Spend a little more and get RPF1 wheels and Dunlop ZII star spec tires.

The RPF1's are undoubtedly lighter and stronger than the jnc021 and the ZII are a great summer performance tire for heavy cars like the X.

Here is a fitment thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...el-thread.html

The ZIII isn't a bad bang for the buck actually. There's better out these days, but they gave a couple heavy hitters a run for the $ couple years ago. Alternate similar tires would be Hankook V12 EVO2 and Conti Extreme Contact DW.

I second this strongly. The real wheels are only a couple hundred bucks more for a full set of 4, why risk it with some stupid knock offs?

as far as tires, the Sumi are a pretty good tire for the money, but it'll leave you wanting for grip vs stock tires even in the smaller size. also look at the BFG sport comp 2. I know its classed under the Sumi being Ultra high performance instead of maximum, but in my experience they're stickier and still priced similar to the Sumi
