New Shoes
« on: March 11, 2007, 05:58:30 PM »
Well i thought i'd post an updated pic of my car. I bought some 135s for up front and mounted em on 4.5 inch stock wheels, And got some 185 / 65s for the rear on 5.5 inch wide wheels. Im not to happy with the way the back tires look. Im gonna get some 195 70s i think.  Im gonna be getting some chrome wheel studs, i actually bought some from CIP but they didnt work out for me, the threads were to long. and they just didnt seem to screw in nicely. Let me know what ya think. Its kinda temporary till the summer when i might get brms or something.

You can find chrome wheel studs, the right lenth and the correct thread at Lordco. Not that expensive.

Looks good. I would go 205/65's for the rear if you change them.

I run 195/70R15's on the back and 145's up front. Back is stock height and front is down about 2\". The tall rear tires make for nice highway cruising.
