AMR Black Wheels Installed

I also finally installed the correct MM CC Plates for those with the Eibach R2 Coilovers. Part number is MM5CC-5 CJ Pony Parts had them. Getting it aligned this week but camber is not bad at all right now.

I adjusted the compression some more on the R2s, I'm at 4 clicks on the front 2 in the rear. Hearing some clattering in the back now with the stiffer ride, seems to be at the top of the spring/perch area, haven't quite nailed it down. Heard a few people talking about shims, rubber pads, but any info on what you guys think it is would be great.

As for now I'm enjoying my new Black AMR/Sumitomo Tire/Wheel Package from American Muscle, 19" 245/275.

Looks sooo good with grey. There are only a few colors I like with black wheels.

yeah that combo looks amazing, great job! kinda makes me wish I would have got the black AMR's but I didn't want the "black wheels on black cars are played out" crowd to steal my shine .

i think if you black out the 5.0 badges and tint the markers, it would set off the look even more. either way, the car looks nice. please describe your impressions on the coilovers so far, how do you like the ride quality and handling besides the clatter issue?

Thanks a lot everyone!

As for the black badges and markers definitely thinking about it! Need to have a bit more black contrast I feel.

As for the coilovers I'm very impressed. Car is not floating anymore and at the adjustment at click 1, was experiencing an improved ride quality, don't know how. No brake dive and exaggerated squat now either.Now that I've stiffened it up some via the adjustments, it's definitely rougher, might need to tune it down a bit for daily driving, but very exhilarating!!

Love the rims. I'd like more of a matte black finish, but these are awesome looking too.

Looks nice. I'm about to pull the trigger. Called AMR once, and have looked at them about 100 times. Is that a square setup or are those the 10" wide rims in the back?

The rears are 10" - 275/40/19 and fronts are 8.5" - 245/45/19.
Couple more pics now that I lowered her all the way down on the back and another of the engine bay with the eibach reservoirs and mm plates.

That is just awesome man. I love the look of your car.
Love the coil over reservoir set up too. Coil overs for the win!
