Good looking rims, I'm sure the wife loved having them on the table. Poor kid had to stare at them while eating cereal.

Default Well...



They we're the ones who popped the boxes opened (my 4 year old saw the UPS truck arrive and said; "Daddy!! The new Camaro wheels are arriving!") So i figure its not too painfull when you have such a marked interest...



...And if you look closely, you'll see there is a glass on that table. I told said wife when i bought the table set; "Its to protect it from the kids"....Just didn't specify which!

Yean, taste's good tough, you should try!

The only thing i might have done differently while thinking back since i got 'em is i might have had the inner rim coated too, i'm sure it would be easier to keep clean. I might try and polish 'em if i have time before summer or maybe paint them semi flat black or something...Ideas?

Todd, i already have decided on my tires. I have 345-25-20 Pirelli P-Zero Assimetrico's for the rear and am working with a Big Pirelli dealer (Cool guy) on fitting the biggest front. I think on my 19x8.5 W/5.2 bs i should be good for 245 minimum... I would like to test fit a 255 and a 265 to see. But am not sure at all where that will put me.

Wanting to run the car LOW doesn't help either.

Tracy, is your front clip on by now? What size are you running in the front? 18's no? I really liked yours too (Steve was the other inspiration) for the color! They are really nice and finish is unbelievable.

Thanks for the props guy's!

I should get the tires mounted on thursday (had a hickup this week end and can't take em with me before then)

Lead.

Oh yeah, Rock, Frank is the Man for Forgeline! (and anything else for that matter!)
