Those rims probably wouldn't look too good on my car but they work well on yours. Those tires look like they have a nice aggressive tread, how do they hook up and where did you get them so cheap?

It was beautiful in Connecticut today...Finally got some so-so pics..I tell ya, these Sumitomo's arent that bad..I stalled till about 2,300 rpm's, dropped the hammer, and it hooked great..Cant wait to get to the track and get some times..

Looks good, a black rear window louver would really set that car off.

I was curious to see what those wheels would look like on a car, as i contemplated ordering them at one point. The black on black is nice

I don't have a good one of the fender emblem, but I did a rear emblem and it looks just like the ones on the fenders.

Damn, I like that...Did you do any prepping, or just clean them and spray them?? It looks good though...

Yeah, just cleaned them up and sprayed them with krylon. Taking them off the car was the hardest part.

They've been on there more than 6 months with no touch up. I am just careful when washing drying the car.
