New Wheels | Tires | Debadged | Pics
Got the new wheels and tires and wanted to share the pics, I also put a pic up of the back end after being debadged.
On the wheels, does everyone running 275s on the rear get the gap between the edge of the rim and the tire? It was explained that a 285 would be more flush but then rubbing will occur.
So now I can't wait to drop it! It definitely needs it! I have ordered the Tanabe NF210s AND the Sustec Pro 5 coilovers - the coilovers were an afterthought so I will end up with both, oh well. I guess I can sell the springs later.

Well hopefully the suspension drop will make an improvement. I am not sure how much smaller they really look than 20" but without lowering it kind of looks not so great. It's a work in progress!
I hope next week I get the coilovers and can finish that part of the mod out. Who knows, maybe I can choose a different angle, better location, and even use something other than a 2.0 megapixel camera phone!

10.5" Rear
8.5" Front
If anyone can confirm that 285 tires won't rub in the rear then I believe that's my answer. I have stock suspension now but changing it as soon as I can to the Tanabe Sustec Pro 5 coilovers.

Pole Position
The wheels are working good for me. The tires from the photos look like there is a HUGE gap between the outter lip and the sidewall, like they are way too small.
