HELLO from #392-- new pics added 6-26-09= Chrome OEM wheels

275's don't fit right on stock 7.5" wheels, Looks stupid. That's why they came with 245's.

That's why I run replica rims, they are 8.5" and I can run a 275 nicely in the rear AND a 255 nicely in the front.

I dont know what to say-- that red car in the link i posted-- the tires look great. I wrote him, and he doesnt seem to reply. I guess we will never know.

What i do know-- I hate these tires.. HATE them. Nitto 555 Extremes on the front and 555 ExtremeR Drag in the back. Perhaps Because these are Extreme's they have MORE sidewall than usual? I dont know. I wonder what they would bring on ebay...


The left fender on the car seems to be about 3/16" out at the door. Any idea of how i could adjust this? You can see it in some of the drivers side pics.. its just not quite there.. needs to come in..

I adjusted the hatch, finally- and now the roof line is off- yeay. I can tell where thats going to go..

In the meantime-- washed, again. more pics-- not in the road in front of my house.

Love the wheels and the stance! Can't say the same for the bra-thing on the hood!

[ceetwarrior]

I dont mind the bra-thing as much. At least it doesn't cover the whole front, like most!

[kbillan]

Yah, whole bra's== horrible. Hood pieces.. I dont mind them.

In this case, there is some checking on the hood-- this covers it up.

I think the car has a great stance. The rear tires look fine to me too...but I know what it like when something bothers you and you want it to look a certain way.

Nice looking car!

Thanks-

its not just the rears.. in comparison to the fronts- their fine.. but as a whole, the whole set- just have a rounded took to the sidewalls... compared to the other tires i see on others cars..
