Rims are here!!! just have to go order tires tomorrow so final pics installed will be updated
Thanks to JAVY for his much needed help on the tires. They where not helpful enough at the tire place.
Lowered on TeinS
Front drop =1.6
Rear Drop=1.2
TPMS = YES!!
19 x 8.5 Front
Offset +(36)
Tires=235/35/19
19 x 10 Rear
Offset +(38)
Tires=275/35/19
Tires=Michelin PS2
FYI i test fitted a 275/35/19...if one wanted to roll the rear fender this set up will work! I dont feel comfortable doing it and not sure who could do it so i am going to play it safe! Here is a pic of the rear rim fresh in the box...
**UPDATE** 3/18/07
I had the rear fenders rolled today and went with the 275/35 tire. Had minor paint crack from them doing it so i will let everyone know how it holds up. I am going to use touch up paint and then i think a heavduty blk silicone to coat it and help prevent the paint from cracking or becoming a problem. if it does then i will have to take to the bodyshop for paint. Tires are on order so a few more days
pics of Rear only...Waiting on fix for fronts.

That's my next ....haven;'t figured out which way to go.
Coilovers. F-sport suspension, Eibach springs and hotchkis sways, Tein CS and EDFC....I only really want about 1" drop in front and about 1/2" in back, and keep the ride quality.
