Default Mama got new shoes 'again'

i just got hooked up with still another set of rims and tires for my black beauty . Thanks to john (//LRD) he hooked me up with a set of Falken Noblenz black with a sick 4' chrome lip 10.5 rear and 8.5 in front 30 offset I took his advice on tire size also and picked up a set of general UHP 275 30 19 rear and 245 35 19 front .I didnt have any fitmernt issues and no rubbing either ,i may still go with a 1' drop in the spring with a Eibach Pro kit . John the man and i really appreciate the awesome deal and his advice and help getting this sweet look for my ride.

I really like the look of your car. Nice choice of wheels. When you lower it a bit it will look real wicked. It is nice to have some cool buddies who always look out for you.
I hope to have my car looking as cool as that someday haha.

the wheels are not particularly my cup of tea but that doesnt mean thery are not nice or are not good quality wheels---------i agree your car needs to be lowered as does mine---i have 20 inch chromes on stock suspension everytime i look at it i want to lower it------just havent gotten around to it yet i guess


t5hanks for sharing the pics-----cool car

Just got the tires saturday so dont really know about how they wear etc but the ride is fine and I did some research they are made by continental and for a aggressive tread they got really good reviews
Thanks for all the comments and I have thought about coilovers but I font think I could have more than 1 ' drop without major rubbing issues . I will have to roll the rear fenders even with the pro kit.

They are just eBay drilled and slotted. Think the company is brakemotive out of Chicago. I've used them on my 3000 gt snd my c70 volvo and they haven't given me any problems .
