    I think it's pretty cool Geordie. It is definitely original, can't say i'd do the same...but it's nice to see something different for sure.

      I like it, it's not too bad

      BUT... You should have some 225/45's up front and 235/40's in the rear IMHO

          my rims are 16x7.5 et30 and with 205/50s there is no rubbing anywhere.

                Thanks!

                But there is no way I'd get 235/40s out back with the way she sits now...I had to roll the fenders to get the 215s to fit. And the 225/45 would mess up the whole "profile matching" I was trying to accomplish. Like I said, it was pretty much between 195/45/16 and 215/40/16...both the same profile as a 215/40/17.

                Trust me, I put a LOT of thought into this...:D

                    Geordie, I think your car looks awesome, BTW what is your suspension setup and how big is the drop?

                    Cheers

                      GC/Koni with 6-inch, 550# springs up front, 650# rear. I'm planning on going with 5-inchers, 600# soon in the front as it is all the way down as it sits now.

                        i love the rims and i love how the car looks,

                        the one problem im having with it is that the rear is tucking pretty much the whole tire, and while the rear is at the right height, it looks wierd because the fronts dont fill out the fenders at all. i would space out the fronts and put a wider and slightly taller tire on it.

                          I like it, different isn't always good, but in this case it is.

                            UPDATE!

                            FINALLY got my 20mm H&R spacers installed...only took them six days to get here from TMS. Looks a lot better, doncha think?

                              The spacers definately help a lot, the undersized fronts don't look nearly as bad now.

                                looks way better with the spacers...i love the look of those rims...maybe a bit beefier rubber on the fronts would make it look perfect.
