Pics of that car have been on here before. I believe the car actually belongs to one of the guys who started Heavy Hitters magazine. The car was in an accident and the whole color was changed and it now sports a job design kit now. Its pretty sweet and you will probably be seeing more of it soon in a new issue im sure, just redone.

that car is actually clean and subtle, especially the fact that's its on 22".

The only reason IMO it looks good is because its slammed, more then most people on here would dream of and the lip kit which makes the wheels look not so big. All the cars with 22s on here are either always bone stock aka 4x4 or lowered but not enough to pull it off.

Being a 300 has nothing to do with it. Based on this thread, he is referring to the cosmetic side and not so much performance.

what I meant is that it less perfect because it has no *****. Performance is always a consideration. A 245 hp motor on a 3800 lb car with 22's on it. I bet he is putting down less than 190 whp with those big *** 22's. With all of that added unsprung mass a larger brake set up and a larger motor would be just what this doctor ordered.
