Default Finally took some pictures of my winter wheel setup.

Here they are sitting on their blizzaks for the winter. And they may be for sale soon, only about 500-600 miles or so on it. Let me know what you think.

Pictures also in my gallery.

Looks good. How do they do in snow / icy conditions?

the offset looks to be incorrect in the rear...maybe it is just the photo.

Great, only limitations is ground clearance. When the snow is up to the fog lights going up hill is quite hard. If you are rolling its fine, just don't stop. LOL

Nothing wrong with those; I like the looks of the wheels.

Good post!

have you hit any dry pavement to see if its any faster with the smaller wheels. that setup would look pretty nice on a lowered xfire.

Maybe a bit but nothing substaintial. Just doesn't feel as sluggish off the line anymore. But thats neither here or there. I did something to get a bit over 50more WHP. And I am quite happy with the results.

Eh, say what you want, the car is awsome, I don't even drive my crossfire anymore. Just sits there. Even my dad, who hates dodge with a passion, likes the srt-4 over the XF. I wish I bought one in the first place.

i have driven an 04' srt 4...the engine & seats are great but...the ford quality plastic interior is less than desirable.

bang for the buck...no doubt.

key words are..."ford quality" plastics.

in laymen's terms...a very cheap plastic interior.

Hey I have painted silver trim too in the srt-4, LOL. The interior is not that great in the crossfire, the 300c's is better as along with the mini's and a bunch of other cars. Granted it is better than the srt-4, but for 15k more you ought to get something. And fords are known for better interiors than dodge. Saying a gm interior would make more sense, but the GTO has a nicer interior than our crossfires.
