Rep Power: 294 Not a good pic, and it is a sedan, but it's the best I can do. This is a pic from the Midwest 7thGen Meet.

Rep Power: 0 I'll have pics up soon. Just ordered them in 19". Check the xenon car, you can find it in the
parts section of this website. They have those rims too. The F5s are the sweetest wheel out
there!

Rep Power: 0 Ya, i thought about that too when buying the 19s. I noticed alot of people riding on 205/40/17s
and nobody ever says to those people that they're crazy riding on those rubber bands. I don't
think people realize that the difference of the sidewall between that 17" tire and a 225/35/19
is only 1.6mm less sidewall on the 19". That difference is not even noticeable. I guess T.O. are
pretty nasty though. Anyway, i'll try and get some pics up when i get them on.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

Rep Power: 0 My taste is not just rims, i just dun wanna show off the rims i want ppl to notice the rubber...the amount of rubber on the sidewall balances the look of the rim on the car... IMO, I went to buy new rubber for a modded up 5 series.. had the tire guys take off the rubber they put onto the BBS rims cause the sidwall was too thin, so we upt the rubber. rubber changes the look of you rims... i know some shiet about tires cause i did tire changes as partimer. I'm a bit picky.. the car has to look just right and perform just right... everyone has their own opinion,s and i'm open to that
