I would have taken more, but I can't find the memory card for my camera so i can only take 4 at a time.

What you all think?

750+ stockers. the wheels have 275/40/17s on them so the tires are really wide, but i dont get any rubbing. It makes me see that i need a tint tho...

very sharp looking thumbsup

Dont be sad there Bobby, your ride still looks plenty tight. I still think a set of white bullitts would look boss on your car but I'm sure they would be a pita to keep clean.

Tires are definitely a killer, I still have to buy a set of winter tires for my other set of rims, but since winter is almost over, Im just going to wait

Looks awesome! Lower the car and it'll look even more amazing. You're not gonna run them for the rest of the winter though are you?

BTW, where in Chicago are you from?

how are the eagles in the rain? They have no sypes (sp?) at all hardly so I figured they'd be all over the road in heavy rain, thats why I didn't get them. oh well, look good man, tint and a sig update is what you need now :p

Yes the rims are from Shaun, he lives pretty close by to me.

I am planning on lowering my car, just not for alittle while.

The Eagles aren't bad in the wet, or at least i haven't slipped yet. Sig update is in progress

Im getting those for sure but I wanted 18's but looking at yours, 17's are good enough but the tires are really 275/40 and you get no rubbing at all.

Yeah they are 275/40s with absolutely no rubbing. Shaun had his car lowered about one and a half inches with no rubbing
