RE: Bought new wheels!
I love the look of the Avon Venom for a rear tire, I think the tread siping design makes the tire look even wider. The sidewall profile is about a half inch lower with a 180/55 so that will look better and lower your rear end about an inch all while having a wheel that is an inch bigger. DAMN RIGHT! It's going to look awesome!
I'm sure the ME 880 Metz is a great tire too, but I'd go Avon Venom just to be different and I think the Avon sizes are better for 5.5 inch wide wheels.
