Looks great. Nice deep dish out back. What are the specs of your rims/tires. Some new springs would make it look even better.

That looks good! Needs dropped though and I would try gun metal color instead of all black on trim!!! That would make a nice different contrast!!! MY 2 Cents. Enjoy sweetie.

What are those wheels? I must have them. Do they come in a graphite center? My car is graphite and always thought those type of wheels would look good. Love em.

I'M BACK. Sorry for such a long delay, but I have been up to my ears at work. Summer is almost here and business has picked up. Anyway to answer all the questions, The wheels are 20" x 10" rear and 19" x 8.5" front, they are the 5 x 112 bolt pattern and the 34 offset. The G-Force tire is great. They are louder than stock, but for the handling they give you it's well worth it. With the stock tires I was able to brake loose from a stand still and now the thing just leaps with almost no spin. (I WISH I HAD MORE H.P) So all in all I am very happy with my choice and for $2,200 for the whole package complete I can't complain. Now that I did that to my wife's car, mine is next. I'll keep posting pics with the progress.

Not sure yet. My wife still uses it as her daily driver. She drives about 100 miles every day. Not sure how the ride would be. Any input??

the ride is almost the same, just a tad bit "springier".

She won't even notice just do it.
