  • New Shoes for my ride!

    Well they are not completely new. My bro found these on craigslist for $650. OE Z06 Replicas, 17x9.5 inch with Nitto 555 rubber. They are so much better than my old wheels and tires. The car handles better, hits bumps softer and less vibration in the steering wheel. Makes the car so much fun to drive. (I acknowledge that my old tires were pretty worn, and possible out of balance though)

    Enough talking...pictures

    To remind people what the car looked like 2 years ago when I bought it.

      Thank you! I agree about lowering it. But this is my daily driver and I live in NY. So winter driving and snow tires are realities for me.

              19's? Isn't that a bit much for this car? No matter, I have the same ones, albiet in 17's on my Camaro. How are the tires? I recently bought the new BFGoodrich Sport Comp-2, just waiting on them to arrive.

                Thanks, I edited it 17x9.5. The tires are amazing, completely transformed the car.

                  Haha, I was thinking to myself that those don't look like 19's to me.

                    LOL!!

                    I was very tired when I made that post...funny when you make a mistake like that with no recollection whatsoever. 19s look terrible on these cars, this looks good!
