thejazz7 no the sport pkg also came with 16" wheels and the dunlop sp sport 8000e is the stock tire it was the celebration pkg that came with the 17"'s in 2001

 

Kumho Ecsta MX's are a great summer tire for the price. Like most tires, they will get louder as they wear, and that also has to do with how you drive, the streets you drive on and your alignment.

The Michelin Pilots are a great tires, but not worth the extra $$$ - IMNSHO.

 

Michelin's are crazy expensive nice tire but definetly not worth the extra dow
