Ok guys, many of you asked for better pictures, here they are. I went to a local park this weekend to enjoy the beach & it has beautiful areas for pictures, never the less I took a few quick pics & a couple at home as well. I'm very, very happy with how the wheels turned out! I personally like wheels that have some lip on 'em but I have to admit, I'm impressed with these! Enjoy!

NOTE: This is the Item number for the wheels on ebay: 250780965712

Also looking to trade 2 of my chrome 17x9 Cobra R's for anyone that has 2 17x8's. This would benefit both of us having thinner wheels up front. I don't want 17x9's up front anymore. My Cobra R's will eventually go on the CE!

LMFAO!!! OMG, lol... Ok Laser, I have to admit... That was funny stuff. I needed a laugh on a stressful Monday! It's actually driving pretty damn nice! That TBS is still bothering me a bit but the car is now my daily driver. Giving my truck a nice vacation!

What tire sizes did u go with?

275/45/17 NEXEN - Rear (I had those tires in my back yard w/80% life left in 'em)
245/45/17 Pirelli's- Front (Got a good deal at a local tire shop)
 
Nice look. If you can't find "skinny" (LMFAO) cobra r's, and you want to sell them. I would buy them off you.

No way dude, definitely not selling those wheels! Cobra R's are very hard to come by. Chrome Cobra R's are even harder to obtain. If all else fails, I will re-chrome them & just install them on the CE but I truly wish I could find thinner wheels for the front. The suspension suffers a lot with the thicker tires up front.
 
Well if you wanna spend the dough you could have them narrowed. If not, don't get all butt hurt like someone else on here.

Yep, :shifty:I saw the thread... lol... Nah, no sweat!!!:D Chances are, I will be sanding them down, re-chroming & slamming them on the CE in a few months. Not in a rush though, other priorities! I need to prep, paint & sell my 97 first!:(
 
I'm going back in the next couple weeks to take pictures of both the 93 & the CE! I will definitely be dedicating more time to diferrent options in the pictures & hopefully by then I've installed the LSC headlamps too!
 
Looking nice buddy. I dig the scene shots in the park. Where is that by the way? Those rears have to be taller being 275/45 vs 245/45 front.

Well, they look way better on the car than I thought they would.

DITTO! Didn't expect them to look that good!
 
looks good man, you need 1/4 inch spacers on the front though, i wish i took pics of mine without mine in, wheels are inside the well a little too much, mine looks bad with no spacers, i am not huge on the fact that i have them, but it looks 1000 times better with them, but they do look real good on your car, will that thing make it up here or what?
