LOL yeah I realized the error of my ways and sold the car.

but seriously... stock the car came with 14x6 wheels. For $50/wheel at pep boys I got 15x7 wheels to run a much more reasonable set of tires. Hard to beat that...

They aren't bad for $50/wheel, by the time I was done with powder on the RPF1s I spent about $300/wheel.

Anyone going to the SF Auto Show at all this week? I'm planning on going Friday.. even though it's a distant second to the LA Auto Show, it's a family tradition

Think this would fit?

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/pts/4178356228.html

From what I've been reading, +20 will poke out pretty far, and I dont think it'd fit without mods with 235's up front, rear will need some trimming.

Yeah, SF auto show on thanksgiving weekend was always a tradition for us (sometimes even when we are in Stockton). Its too bad they no longer have them on as long as they used to, but at least they are putting it on since it was cancelled a few years back
