Steak and kidney pie is generally very good except that kidney tastes like liver...
If I can get off early enough I would be honored to buy you a drink!
Speaking of which... I just got back from the Red Car brewing company in Torrence... very good beer and an outstanding prosciuttoand portabello mushroom pizza.

OK....

I thought it was funny.....

It was too late for good pics. Tried taking them with the good camera but the good light was gone for the evening and the flash wasn't up to the task. I did take a couple with the iPhone immediately after the install. It's all I got. I swear.






I will take pics tomorrow morning and get them up as soon as I can. The rear diameter is still a little too small for me, but it's what I ordered. Next set will probably be 295s. The are offset a little so a adj. panhard is in my future, but it isn't that bad. The fronts are perfect.

You mean the width is narrower than what you expected?

Looks good though Brian!

Are you running staggered?

Thanks Jed
I definitely can't run big brakes there is minimal clearance between the rim and caliper, unless I use a spacer.

+2 on the cantons Bill. They look great. Form and Function But keeping them up will be a PITA.

No overall wheel diameter, width is is pretty good. Better than I expected. They still burn out pretty good, but they hook much better than the stockers.

There was a little panic, stress, frantic phone calls, cussing under my breath and finally relief. The wheels arrived Monday but no Tires... They *would be in today*..... Around 4:15 I got the call that they'd be at the installer @ 6. I arrived about the same time the tires did so I had to wait longer than I expected.

But I believe the POTR crew will like them as much as I do. If I have any criticism I'd say the rear should have been bigger as they're a little smaller than I expected.

Without further ado

Here.....

They....

Are ....



LMAO!!! Thanks for that! The real ones look great.

27.3 from the stock 235/50-18 vs 27.0 285/40-18

It seems more than a .3 of an inch. But maybe it's just me.

Staggered, yes 255/45-18 up front.
