Thanks for sharing. Your new set-up looks great.

Man, I jealous, looked like a beautiful day. I haven't been to a meet where it hasn't rained in the past 4 months! Damn Seattle...

Usually just your browser cache, just hit refresh.

All those pics in the first page probably more than 25 MB total.

Guys, I don't really check my PM.

For general questions like "what kind of camera do you use" etc just please ask in this thread.

Awesome Pics - Thanks!

OK - I'll ask. What type of camera and lenses did you use to take the pics. The cars look great and really shows with the fantastic photos. Of course, a good eye for framing the pics as well.

Second question: What offsets did you use for the fronts and rears? Any rubbing issues with the 285's in the rear? Thanks!

I use Canon 5D and 17-40mm L lens on those shots.

Offsets are 42 rears and 32 fronts I believe.
No rubbing.

Generic brand from ebay.

Here's my car with stock rims and 245 all-around winter tires - 5mm fronts & 15mm rears.

With this height my fronts are rubbing when turning and hit a bump.

Excellent photography! I usually like 1 out of 100 aftermarket rims, but yours look pretty good.
