Just brought the car home a couple of hours a go. The wife is a smart girl, she is hiding. Have I got some extra energy, me and woody...

So many people to thank...

smokedlamps.com
huper optic tint - ceramic tint
6lb test fishing line - (shaven look)
f-metalwheels
my local shop "Mobile Technologies" (tires & rims) - mount and bal.

but most of all the forum with all the great information - Thank You!!

I hope you enjoy the pictures, your comments are welcome

K-1 is on the way...

Rims are 8.5 X 20 front 10 X 20 rear
Michelin SP2's 255/30/20 front 295/25/20 rear
This tire and rim combination is over 4 lbs lighter than the stock tire and rim. Just over 17 lbs shaved off.

This company makes the rims custom for the car they are going on. They have the offsets/specs exact.
