Thanks guys!! I am very happy. The brushed does not go great with the car color but we are going to be painting the car after everything is completed on the build and we know it all works. Thinking a charcoal grey or white and satin black off sets. I just had the bumpers done and everything else is going to be treated with satin black if chrome now to try my idea or combo I am going with.

Now you'll have a good excuse to take a test drive over the hill so we can check them out in person! Great choice in size and style!

Right on, yea I would like to stop and check your shop out one day.



So, I am trying to order tires and getting stuck.....

Nitto NT05 *(What do people feel about these?) Street use mainly
Front
-275/30r19 = 25.51x10.71
-275/35r19 = 26.65x10.79 / think this is too tall?
Rear
-275/35r20 = 27.56x10.75 - too skinny
-275/40r20 = 28.62x10.79 - too skinny
-315/35r20 = 28.62x12.40 / I think I can "make" this fit?

OR

Nitto NT555 *(What do people feel about these?) Street use mainly
Front
-275/30r19 = 25.51x10.71
-275/35r19 = 26.65x10.79 / think this is too tall?
Rear
-275/30r20 = 26.61x10.71 - too skinny
-275/35r20 = 27.60x10.91 - too skinny
-285/30r20 = 26.93x11.02 / I think this is a great fit with the 275/30r19 front but I am feeling this is conservative and I need to try the 315/35r20


Any other recommendations so I can order some tires and get them under the car so I can take my axle specs to start the axle build.

Nice avatar, Nick! Thanks for everything!

People often refer vendors, but as a vendor let me just refer Nick as a client. Fellow vendors and business owners know what I mean and you'll really know what I mean of Nick calls to purchase from you.

Car looks great, Nick. I look forward to watching it come together.
