So after having trouble with 2 sets of chrome wheels. I opted for a different wheel, obviously not chrome lol. I love these wheels, at the AM show I'll be buying 10.5s and 315s for the back. I can't get over how good they look on here. Yes I know it desperately needs a drop lol. That'll be done within the near future. I think all I have left exterior wise are a set of headlights, paint the calipers, DD rears w/ 315s, and a S281.

Good choice Joe they look good on your car. Only thing about the bullitts is if you don't keep up on them eventually the clear starts to chip away on the lip. At least mine did when I had them. The DD's will really set it off man

Why do your front tires look bigger than the back? Is that just the way the picture looks?

Thanks man. Yeah I'll keep em clean, a coat of wax on em when I wash them. Might even throw the stockers back on for the winter idk yet lol. I can't wait to get the DD's.

The picture makes it look like that but they're not. Same size, 245/45/17s all around lol
^Now that I look at it your right.. Looks like 235's on the rear and 245 up front almost...
I see what use are sayin lol. The fronts stick out more than the rears. Same tires all around tho.

Your wheels in the front might be a different offset, but either way looks good cant wait to see a s281 wing on it.

Idk lol, they're the same 17x9s all around. My fronts always stuck out more than the rears even with the stock 17x8s lol. Me too, a S281 paired with 315s and a drop should look dope lol

Yeah. I'm not worried about it though haha. As soon as I got enough dough to get the wheels and 315s, I'll get the S281.

The fr500s were an option but in 17x9s they look weird to me. Everyones got their own opinion thats fine lol. I accept it all lol. Might see it as a down grade, but to me it takes the car to a new level. Makes it look tough and more old school. Think once I paint the calipers an put the S281 on it'll really pop, Maybe a chin spoiler and cowl hood..

Thanks dude. Me too, I think the black would've looked too dark ino. Idk when I'm dropping it or getting the 10.5s. Shit just might get a set of 245s and 315s sumitomos for the bullitts and use my tires now on the stockers. I'm most likely getting the gears at the show though. I'll try and find ya lol. My bro and sisters bf entered their cars in the show. Idk if I wanna put mine in. My bumper looks like shit lol
