New Shoes

[PGA2B]

Well, I have decided to get the ION 115 Wheels. They look 1000% better in person. I had my buddy get one (that currently is in my trunk) so I could see it in person and all I can say is WOW. The actual wheel is much shiner in person than in these pics. Also I think the Akuza would too much bling for me. I am getting springs this week thanks to Sprint.
The Wheel

A Photoshop on the car. Remember they look much better in person.

I will post pics when I get them put on. I have also completed my "Black Out" of front grill, rear surround, and window trim that I will post also.

From the chopped pic it looks like you are going with 20's. Good choice in wheels they will look good when you get them put on. Keep us updated!

They are 20x8.5 with 40mm offset. I know I will need some modifications but that is taken care of. Tires are 245/35/20 and I am getting them from my best freind BK. He owns a company called Autowerks here in KC.

Honestly I think I will but on my last car I rolled the fender lip and had no further trouble so I am expecting to do that when the springs are installed.

I don't know what the going rate is but I have a friend that has the roller at his tire shop. So it will only cost me my time. I did this myself on my GP and will do it myself on the LS .

 

[NickLS]

I need to make friends w/ people who have body shops and work at Discount Tire.....

well, I don't need to make friends, I need to make NEW friends!

 

[PGA2B]

My friend owns his own wheel and tire shop and I moonlight there doing his car alarms. I was an installer for 15 years.

 

[NickLS]

have you ever installed any of the Clifford Line?? Like the Avant Guard 5? or the RSX 3.5??

 

[PGA2B]

I worked at a shop that sold Clifford but that was a liftime ago! Back in the early 90's
