That pic is from the Insurance website. I loved the pics and found it very inspirational. Here's a link if anyone is interested

Ya, I love the DF210's cuz out of all the springs they go the lowest. But once I gen my fenders shaved in the rear I'm going with coilovers. I just havn't decided which ones yet. From what I've read, the Phantom Cup Kit sounds to me exactly what I'm looking for

So just a little update. I ended up selling my 20" Maya's and was looking forward to downsizing to 19" Trafficstar STR's but I ended up getting another set of 20's LOL I'll post up some photos as soon as they come in.

So my wheels finally arrived. I ordered up a set of Aicona ALC 35 in the black with machine cut and chrome lip. To my surprise the wheels looked way better in person. I've ordered a lot of different brand wheels before but this is the first time I've seen any wheel packaged like this. The fronts are 20x9 +34 (3.5" lip) and the rear is 20x11 +33 (5.5" Lip). Its low disk in the rear with a high disk in the front in case I decide to go with a BBK in the future. I definitely hate to be the one to say it but they sure do look close to my old Maya's but much bigger dish. I'm gonna plan to run 225/35R20 front and 275/30R20 rear. It's a toss up between Falken FK-452's or Yokohama S.Drives, any suggestions? I hope its enough stretch to clear the rear fender. Now I'm just waiting on my air bags and drop this b!tc#

1st time I seen wheels packaged like this too. I sure it is because you paid a pretty penny for those wheels.

could not have said it better. the rims will look sic with those huge lips. and on a side note i have never had amy problems with falken 452's, although i think the s-drives have better traction but cost more and wear out faster. just what i've heard. please post pics asap

I have s drives on my front. They do run a little wide just to let you know. Also they stay more square when stretched. Overall I am very please with the stretch and traction, especially with the rain we have had latly. The car handles great with these tires.
