Default My redline with new shoes!

Ok guys i know its not a killer setup, definitely wish i had way lower offsets but this is the best i could do for now... hopefully get my hands on some Trafficstar STMs next spring. Anyway i just ordered some spacers (10mm front, 5mm rear) to help make them come out more. Without further delay here are the specs:

19x8.5 et30 w/ 245-35-19 Falken FK451
19x9.5 et25 w/ 275-35-19 Bridgestone RE050

Here:









Let me know what you guys think of my setup for now. Also the car is lowered on Eibach springs, i think about an inch.

Default Looks great but

what is average life of a low profile tire on Long Island New York? Geeze the roads really suck there.I see ports cars with bent wheels on side of highways there all the time. I'm an X native from Huntington and visit monthly. I drive my pickup as the holes are treacherous. WTF do they do with all those tax $$$$ up there.









oo

damn you know nyc alrite! well the car barely leaves long island, the roads arent as bad as the rest of nyc... it just takes skill to be able to drive with low profiles, had so many cars with low pros and i can honestly say that i never bent a rim so far... lol

thanks for the compliments guys!

nice rims.. nice ride... I just discovered those today and is strongly considering them...what's the quality like? how much do they weigh? how much did it cost you? saw it online for $1130?? are they compatible with TPMS?

thanks

no tpms would have t0 be fitted with using the banding process... quality seems very good for the price that they go for... and when i weighed them it was same as touring 18s- 22lbs fronts & 25lbs rears... pm me if you want them, i got a good hookup on these definitely less than the total you posted! thanks for the kind words =)

Nice look! I've got the redline also with 19" Zenetti Stella's. Black with 3" lip. If you want to add to the overall look.....black out the window's. You will not be disappointed.
