I have to say they are growing on me.
Congradulations on having such a unique setup... for now.
Probably the first set of privately owned fanblades.

Without a Doubt The First! He had them within Three to Four Days after Release! Another set is Right Behind him also. And They are Both in Michigan! I have Four Sets in stock at the moment! Both TMS Regulars!

Your setup looks great. I'm going to add the exact same combination to my '05; 18" fanblades with BFG KDW 255/45/18 tires.

That's EXACTLY how my '06 is going to look except mine will have spoiler delete...GORGEOUS!!! The fanblades look better painted than I'd thought they would; not as good as totally polished, but sweet nonetheless!

The tires were $170 each. I don't think the tire shop had seen them before - the tread pattern is definitely a head-turner. There are two tread patterns for this tire though - traditional tread (TT) and new tread (NT) - mine are the new tread.

Send kevin (kc) an email at Clevparts@aol.com for the TMS member price (he doesn't want it posted)... it's less than the $315 per wheel list price.

Hey RMac, how does the car drive with your new setup compared to the original tires and 17" wheels that came with the vehicle? Is the ride much firmer with the 18s and lower profile tires, and can you notice a difference in the handling with the wider tires?

The ride is a little firmer, but not by much.

There's a noticable difference in handling. With the stock wheels/tires, if I took a corner with any speed at all, highway ramp, etc. the tires would lose some grip and squeal. Not anymore - these stay planted.
