Some new pics.

Just some pictures over the past month or so...prolly the last pictures till next spring. Only thing thatll change with the apperance of my car are body colored 4th gen handles, correct sized tires, and lining up the body panels better. Rest of the changes will be the motor.

Also are 2 pictures with my gf's car.








----------
I guess cause they were too big they were shrinked...now the quality looks like crap...oh well.

16x8 Cragar S/S...used to be on my car. Ya her user name is sexy89rsgrl.

My fronts are 17x8 and my rears are 17x9...the rear has 285/40s and the front 255/40

If your running a 245/45 your best off staying at that. 255/40s are too small and the 285s on the rear of my car are too big...not optimal for handling. I regret my tire sizes...as you can tell my car has a drag/rake look.
