if this is the same car im thinking of these wheels look 10000x better than what you had on there before. last time i was out in the capital region visiting friends i think i saw this car at the 76 diner. my guess for wheel size would be 17x8. i think they look good just need to slam it… ---

Love um. I’m so glad you didn’t through 19’s on it. I hate super low pro tires. Stupid tread to have the largest wheels is uber lame. Looking good looking good. ---

+1 for CHs 😉 and I don’t think they look “too small” but its amazing how much smaller they look on your car vs mine! 18x8.5? ---

Wheels look good. Proves you don’t need 19’s to be hot. I like all the pics except the dumpster one. You never see any marketing companies taking shots of a product in front of a dumpster… Unless it was related to trash. ---

The tires are a little bit too tall. With a lower profile tires, nobody would be saying they are too small. ---

I mean unless they rub or hurt performance they can’t be too tall. :mamoru: Just because the side wall isn’t .25" doesn’t mean it is bad. I hate that misconception. That sidewall is huge!! Someone hook this guy up with some 20’s so he can win some races!! ---
