Pics of my new wheels
I figured out how to get the Eibach's on the front/back installed. The fronts were a little tough, but I got the hang of it once we did one side.
Anyway, the wheels I got are the SSR GT3's. 19 x 8" in the front, and 19 x 9" in the back with Pirelli P-Zero's. Here's some pics:

Let me know what you think.
