I'm a big fan of the guys at Esoteric, I'm glad they were able to get you set up!

For anyone in Ohio, these are the guys to talk to!! Thanks for posting pictures!!

Make sure it is HUD compatible.

While the car was at Esoteric, I thought I change up the look a little with some liquid metal HRE FF04s wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4Ss. Couldn't be more please with the way everything turned out.
Gorgeous, that is a perfect fit. You have the same initial impression I had when I shifted from the GYs to MPSSs. Probably pickup less crap too. Do the 4Ss protect the wheel better than the GY?

For some reason, I really dont like the FF04s and I'm a fan of HRE.

That being said, i'm also very interested in your feedback on P4S vs OE GYs. Definitely looking for grip in a straight line that I think my PSS are lacking.

Very nice change, but I'm not a big fan of the color of the wheel...wheel is pretty cool though

I picked up my stock wheels today from Esoteric which gave me a chance to do some comparison.

The wheel protection looks similar on each tire. The biggest difference I could see was the inner edge of the GY sort of slants away from the outer edge of the rim. The MP4S inner edge is more vertical to the rim which seems to give it a little more rubber for protection.

I took a photo of each wheel to better illustrate what I'm talking about.
