The paint was “matte black”, now it’s “charred black”. Hard to notice the difference. ---

why didnt you go narrower rim in the front to get some weight out? i mean you gutted the interior to shed weight…and thinner wheels would be rotational weight… i like the permanent mounted tow strap sitting in the front grill lol ---

The 255’s i had on it made the car really sketchy when you got on it, i was breaking them free at 45mph in 3rd gear upto 60 it was NOT FUN Since i need a new rear end i will probably do all of the bushings this winter and drop the car an inch or two, followed by nitrous oxide right after [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/new-wheels/225806.md?page=1)
