They look pretty nice... couldn't find the manufacturer's website, though... that is a little worrisome! Can't wait to see it lowered!

Thanks DarrenDriven,
Yeah the wheels were inexpensive. (Cheap!) lol. I am saving for 18x8 Volk CE28N's. I just can't blow my whole budget on wheels first. I like the concave look of these 17's wheels, the offset, the weight (5.5% lighter), and the price. I still have money left to buy springs and upgrade the stock stereo/speakers.  I am from the NW.

Eibach Pro kit. + New tires. Pilot Sport A/S 225/45/17 all around. Tires side wall is way stiffer. The tires weight more than I wanted, but were a good deal.
I really like that the tires look "meaty" now. I got 16,800 miles out of the stock tires. The rears were gone, the fronts still had a small amount of tread. Sorry that the pics are not the best... |

Got new Tires! 245/40/17 Michelin Pilot super sports! I love em! I thought that they would look "pinched" on the 7.5, but after test fitting them, I think they look great. The 245/40 is one pound lighter than the 225/45's I was running. Last edited by Leonardo; 11-05-2014 at 05:02 PM. |
