Cars and boats!
i stand corrected... it says Ronal on the back of my stock wheels.... but Rondell is in fact a wheel manufacturing company!!! As far as C32 MIA's wheels, PM him or email him if you want to knwo where he got those wheels!

Thank You !!!
Thanks for the kind words, my car turned out exactly like I wanted it to, I got the wheels sight unseen and took a guess on the spring pad and renntech spring combo, the 9mm pads worked out well. I like the clean, AMG look, I'm not one to go looking for HRE's or anything too drastic.

how much is the Toyo T1s tires? I'm still looking into 19" tires, but I haven't got a clue on how are they priced and their treadwear ratings etc. Right now I'm looking at Nitto NT 555, but I really like the pattern of the Hankook Ventus sport K104, but these don't have 265 available from the search on tires.com.

yeah but they show a picture from the front wheel. The rear wheel may be different. C32 MIA which are they?

from where the valve stem sticks out and shape of the opening, I think I've seen those on eBay before. Forgot which company that makes these tho, but definitely not ASA.

anywayz, I think TSW is the company that makes those rims. The lip is created by the different offset of the wheels w/ the same width 19x8.5.
here's a link to bigwheels.net who carry these rims http://www.bigwheels.net/wheel_view....W&model=Bremma

When I was looking at those wheels, the offsets listed were different than stock, so, did this cause any problems?
Thanks, and that is the best look I have seen so far.

i run my car pretty hard, no rubbing at all, thanks to the renn tech springs, if you go with h&r and use 19" wheels, u will rub. going withthe 9mm spring pads(available at your dealer: 5mm, 9mm, 13mm-stock) will drop the rear just a litle bit, i went from 13mm to a 9mm, and another half inch from the RT springs. spring pads are only about $12 for the pair if i am not mistaken
