Default Tee's new shoes

Well, I finally hooked up with SoCalSC4 ( Bob ), and it's time to show off the new shoes! These are Bob's former personal Zone 8's - 20 X 9.5 +36 and 20 X 11 +45 with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's ( 255/30 and 295/25 ). They are the Brilliant Brushed finish - brushed faces and polished edges with chrome lips. I am just thrilled to be sporting these babies on my GS and Bob's a great guy to deal with. The rims were basically what I would have expected if new. Of course the coilovers are going to have to come down another 1/2 - 1 inch, that'll be later. More pics to follow....

By-the-way, I now have a set of Lowenhart BR5's in chrome for sale, if anyone is interested or knows someone who might be. They are 20 X 9 +38in front and 20 X 10 +43 in back, with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2's - 245/35 and 285/30 with less than 3000 miles on the tires. These are true 3 piece JDM rim in very good shape.
