Rep Power: 0 Dont want to be a hater but that looks pretty ghetto and if your going to put 19s on you better get some baer or aem big brakes cause those stock rotors look so tiny in 19s.

Rep Power: 0 Holy damn, is there any room for air in those tires? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] Looks really good! Our drums really suck with most aftermarket rims. Why couldn't they give us all wheel disc in the US.

Rep Power: 0 Thanks everybody on the compliments, the rims are Racing Harts Z5000, the tires I went with are the Yokohoma Paradas there the Spec 2s, I had a set of the first series Paradas and the rode really bad, but these seem to have virtually no road noise, and yes I do have a drop on my car 2 rear 2.25 front...also rear lip had to be rolled a little to adjust for suspenson travel, and the bad thing that is I can't put my camber kit on...cause if I bring the rear tire out any I will be slicing into the side wall with the fender lip [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]....guess thats the price I gotta pay.

Rep Power: 0 You are going to have to shave the fender lip in the back so it won't slice your rims with the camber kit. That is what Vu did and he has 19s with a 225-35 series tire. It looks great and it doesn't rub. He has about a 2.5 inch drop all around. Looks good.

Rep Power: 0 yeah i look at that only prob is the rear fender lip is welded to the inside of the rear fender if you shaved it off there is no support for the fender it will just float around.
