Falkens.... not sure on the model, but they're 225/40/18. I'm getting those tomorrow, then Thursday, I'm taking them to Goodyear for mounting and balancing, and I'm getting some HC rings, so they should be on by the end of the week.

TRU Motorsports. It's my (not-so) local tuner shop. About a 30-45 min drive each way. Little over a grand for the wheels/tires/lug nuts/key. You can find a local dealer here

Yeah, I thought about maybe gettin them polished, but I'm not sure, I like them how they are. I'll get more pics tomorrow of the tires, hopefully the wheels will be on the car by Saturday. Then, when I get my body kit fixed, I'll be a bigger picture whore than Darkstars.

I usually don't like mulitspoke wheels, but with that color with red I think it may look nice. Be sure and post pics when they are on!!

A more accurate observation has never been typed. These should be the starting points before any serious performance modification. What's the point of making a serious performer if you can't control it's power?

Rims look good. You NEED to drop the car before putting those on or it'll look hideous.

I'm not gonna drop the car for a while, because I live in Bum@!#$inEgypt, and the roads aren't to well. I'll drop it after I move out, and I'll get GC's and Koni's. So here's some pics of the tires that I got today. They are Falken ZE512's









And a sort of test fit. I think they will look pretty damn good.

I was actually checkin to see if Hub rings were completely necessary, since I was told that Drag wheels fit our cars So, I snapped a pic or two, sue me, lol. I'll put them on Friday if I get my rings soon.

Be careful with rims and tailgates... I had to watch in horror as one of my Konigs decided to jump off and bounce on the concrete floor.

As for the rims, they look good but IMO would look much better in a polished black.
