I agree she needs a drop - right now a house/credit card bills are winning - plus the ongoing fiberglass lesson for the trunk is getting rather pricey - the goal for the summer is sfc's, finish the stereo install, maybe if i'm lucky some arizen seats - winter it's hood/paint , summer hopefully motor/drop. If you want to donate however, i'd be more than happy to take your money - just lemme know how much you'll be sending and i'll give you an addy

Front rims are 18x8, rears are 18x10. Front and back Kuhmo Ecsta 712's - fronts are 245/40/18, rears are 275/35/18. Before anyone asks, tires shipped from tire rack were 598$. 2 day turn around - would highly recommend them. Dude even noted they were going to Buffalo NY, and called to give a heads up they'd suck in the snow/wet. (what idiot would try to do that with those tires anyways is beyond me). Dry traction they stick very well, corners way better than the stock tires with the 245/50/16 futura's i had on it. Got caught out in the rain once, didnt' really hydro at all - although it was a light rain and i was avoiding puddles like it was my job. Feel free to ask anything else - btw thanks to 18inchboyds, and jeff (kandied) - tires fit perfect first try (i was really paranoid about clearance). Could have went a little wider, but not by much. I have a bit of a concern with the inner lip when i get the cash to drop it. We'll have to see about that when it happens. Btw - the kid where i had them installed - not to reassuring - reverse mount rim - took him 10 min to figure it out. Boyd - 2 weeks late shipping - one with a nick in it, barely notice it unless i point it out, but it's there, and for what i paid it shouldnt be. I didnt want to wait for another rim so i had it installed - i dont know if i'd order from him again. IF i ever decide to do this again - i think i may be dealing with foose.
