    Got the rims and tires (and pics too)
    « on: September 17, 2004 - 11:27:33 PM »
     ;D

    My smile is a bit bigger than the smiley!!!!!  I am so happy with how it all turned out.  We also lifted the front about an inch.  I love the new stance to this car.  It drives so much better now too.  My allignment was way off before as well. The funny thing is that for some reason my manual steering seems so much better too.  Much easier to turn the wheel.  In less then a week this cars handling has transformed into a great riding car.  I am so happy with everything.  My new tire sizes are: Front is 215/65/R15   Rear is 265/60/R15.  Here are the pics...ENJOY!

    here are a few more.  I know they are crappy pics but it is dark and crappy here.  I will post better ones over the weekend.  The little spots in the pics are rain drops.  >:(
