    Got new wheels on today!!

    Finally, the MMs came in and I put them on today. I really like the look, and with the spacers they fill out the fenders nicely. When the time comes to replace tires, I will go to a 215 or 225 tire. These are 205/45-16s and just a bit narrow, even for the wheel. Otherwise, I am very happy with them. I will take better pics soon, but I snapped a couple right after install. The car is dirty, but you get the idea. And the shadowline is a must do now.

        Sweet...car looks fantastic.

        Will definitely look better with the 215/225s.

                I like that ride height...it's not balling, but in flesh it just works.

                  I'd like to see the car come down a bit more, some good rubber put on, new foglamps, and perhaps some different headlights. Looking good though.

                    Lookin' good.

                    I like the stance. I think it's perfect.

                      H&R sports/Bilstein sports.

                      The car is sitting on uneven ground in the pics, so that is part of it (the left wheel is tucked pretty deep where it was sitting, I just didn't take any pics cuz of the lighting). I will take some more pics later once it is cleaned up, and a better setting. I agree though, that the front could def. come down at least half an inch, if not a full inch. The rear sits okay for my tastes.

                      In due time Jordan, in due time. I won't bore you with what I am "gonna" do, but the mods list still has some checkin' off to do. ;)

                      Thanks for the compliments guys.

                        Lookin great Bobby! Pls add shadowline to your list if its not already on there. No need for the chrome when all other trim is black!

                          Looks very nice!

                          One thing, your rear number plate, i see it has some black plastic, as your number plates are shorter than here in the UK.

                          I have a shortened numberplate - those bits of plastic would look hot on mine, make it look alot more "stock" size. If you catch my drift.

                          Whats the deal on them?!
