Ill have more pics and info saterday night.

I can tell you this.
If your looking to get of wheel hop. This is the mod for you! I can get off the line alot faster now and the new tires and rims removed about 90% of the wheel hop I had.

And they look PIMP!

I also had my windows tinted today and my blackcatcustoms gauge face is here and will be going on in tomarrow befor pics are taken.


Later

what type of tire did you get?

looks great!

there have been many posts that say the stock rim is actually 17.5". I guess someone needs to be trained on how to use a tape measure huh?

those are BF Goodrich gForce T/A KDW 2 tires. VERY popular item, i cant get a hold of them anymore at the shop, they have stoped production, national backorder :o

Guess that means I should keep up on my rotations so I don't need new ones soon huh. I love my tires, they look so damn cool. You also can't really beat how well they perform as well as a normal summer tire.

sweet ride love the rims. i would have chosen diffrent tires but hey tomato tamato.

Waht rims are those, they look good!

I have to agree I like the rims. where did you get them. I was planning on going with white to be different. I have a red SS and I thought of having a white design on the car to compliment the rims.:)

Yikes! Invest in some springs or coilovers friend!

Springs are on the list. Not on the top though.
The rims I got from gravana. There ALT sonix.
The stock rim is 7" wide. It even ses so on the rim!

Im uploading pics new pics now. But Im on dialup so its going to take some time.

Later

I will be making a new post on the problem I had with them rubing later.

Enjoy.

Im going to make a new thread on the gauges.

wow looks good. now all you need is a huge brembo gran turismo brake kit with red calipers to set the black rims off!

which springs are you gonna go with..?? it looks like your rear wheels tuck inside....that may be an issue...

Can you get a direct front and rear shot of the stance. I would like to see it.

also interested in rubbing. didnt think these would rub? is it the offset? is offset different from stock?

When I said there has been post's of these rims were 7.5" not 7.0" the poster's recognized the fact that it says 7.0" on the rim as well. they just didn't measure correctly I guess.

I was curious about that. I had 225/60/16 snows rub on my car.

Is it only at full lock?

It only rubed at like 2/3 to lock. It cought the inside of the side skirt when I was backing up and then it rubed any time I turned . Ill be posting pics later today after I get them all uploaded.
My rims are 42mm offset. stockers are 40mm. But my rim is 7.5 so that makes a diff to.
I dont know waht sprinds Im going to use yet as I only want to lower it 1/2 inch and stifen the rid a bit.

wow i guess im screwed. my stock rims almost made a hole in my CAI, and i ordered 19x8 rims :0
