I love them! so far i have 330$ into them including lug nuts and tires hahaha. and i got 2 new tires sitting in my garage for them too.


i think id like to submit this picture for a "LS of the month" poll...

what do you guys think? the might look a TAD on the small side. but that doesnt bother me. i wanted something that looked good but still was light weight and i could race on. also be able to find tires for cheap.

looks sweet dude. Do you happen to have a straight on back view of the pipes? I have a 2000 too and before i opt to slice up the bumper, i wanted to get some views. I like how yours isnt cut as high up as others ive seen.

Not too shabby. Could use another inch, IMO.

yea they look a little small. but its still a BIG upgrade over the stock 16's...

Those rims are awesome. What size are they? I would like them one size larger.

 

[PetesSweets86]

look like 17s or 18s.......

Im no fan of the style but I like the size. I think it looks nice in that size. I love the tips! What are they again? I would have cut a bit farther up so they dont have the look of bending down from the side but thats just me. That me be a bit more risky with dual tips, cutting into the bumper and all.

I think they look great, especially with that color. Im not fan of the 19's and 20's.

I looked long and hard for a good deal on a LS with that color, but the best i found was in my silver.

Why do you need to race?

They might need to be a little bigger.

i drag race at the track with this car. hope to break into the 14's this year. so far my best is 15.0. Acutally now that i got the bike..i dunno how often ill make it. i still didnt want 20" chrome weighing me down.

the rims are 17" mas italy. tires are bf goodrich gforce 245/45's. Id say get 18's but the wheels are discontinued. i picked up this set for 200$ + s/h. they are practically brand new.

as far as the tips go yea i wish they were up higher. the guy doing them just couldnt seem to get it right. first time he didnt even cut the bumper. i said "no...not gonna work". i dont know what brand they are. got them off of ebay.

I wouldnt mind 18's...i think 19's and 20's suck too. im happy with these. not to bling bling, but still gives the car character.

Got a price for the tips when you bought them? Are they 4"?

I really like em!

 

[SPSully]

yeah I cant wait for the track to open back up.... hopefully i can get down near Jason's 14.3 mark. If I can get a 13sec NA pass I'll wet myself!!!


LSOTM entries will be starting soon
