Nice. I have the same wheels but 18s.
Did you order the black lugs from AM? How do they hold up? I may purchase a set from them.

Yes I did order the black lugs from AMERICAN MUSCLE. You just need to be careful, my installer use a socket with rubber insert just like the sockets they use for spark plugs. Remember they are painted and will chip if not careful.

They are a summer tires. I believe it is a much better tire then stock Pirelli's. Handling is great, but have not tested it in cornering yet. Ride is smooth and quiet. I also had them filled with Nitrogen "FREE" at AMERICAN MUSCLE".

Love it. I had a Airaid on it before, also from American Muscle but had some issues with engine light coming on ( 4 times before installing Airaid ) and the Airaid, because of the crank case breather valve install caused the engine to run too lean and was fluctuating, install on Airaid was a rubber grommet and valve pushed in, which causes breather valve to move around under pressure and cause the fluctuation. So American Muscle was so nice and allowed me to return it.( only had it on for a week ) Do not get me wrong there is nothing wrong with Airaid CAI it just did not work with my engine light problem. So far the Roush CAI also from American Muscle is working great and sounds great just like the Airaid only difference is you use part of the stock tubing. throttle response is better then stock and seems to wake up the engine.

Looks good, Bill!

I hope you like those Sumitomo's. I used them on my last car for "track tires." I ran several track days at Mid Ohio and NJMP. They did pretty well on a 2-ton car ('07 Dodge Charger, V6, AWD), even in the rain at NJ!
