Default My new wheels

Now that EOS is over, I guess I can show the car. I actually wanted to do a couple more mods for EOS but the timing for parts was just not right. I figure I can at least show the wheels. These are pics I took a month ago.

The specs for the wheels are:

iForged Techniks, brushed centers, polished lips
20x8.5f +42 high disk 245-35-20 Nitto555
20x10r +38 low disk 275-30-20 Nitto555

There were some fender mods necessary. I rolled the fronts and shaved the rear.

I got this from Lord of the Celsiors (BTW great seller).

Anyway, here are the pics:

Love that rear lip. Too windy that day for cash so I used a 3.5" diskette.


The reason I went with StopTech 355 instead of 332 :

Very nice, the Techniks look just as good on your GS (if not better than) as they did on LOTB's car.

Neo great shots of your wheels. They remind me of Derrick's, only his is high-polish finish

Don't mean to be off-tangent, but I never noticed that you also have mirror blinkers on your GS. Did you get them custom-made? They certainly don't look like from an MB CLK
