MY tailights are a film actually. I tinted it so my whole car could be silver and black. But I decided on these wheels because I was thinking it would look good with the black housed headlights wiht red halo/ red demon eye up front, black wheels with red lip, and in teh rear red tailights. Just haven't got around to taking the tailight tint off yet. Will do when I get these mounted so don't worry

Oh, I know. They'll bolt right onto your new wheels without banding. My AME wheels are a 2-piece and there's zero room inside the rim to band. I don't think it's even possible. The barrel of the wheel is the same diameter of the bead of the tire except a very narrow groove that's more narrow then the TPMS sensor itself.

I am lusting after some LE37's in matte black. I'd even settle for gloss black.

Anything with a reversed lip will need to be banded specifically their GT line, Most of they're monoblocks will have no problems bolting right up (TE's, Ce's, Le's, etc. )

Hahah np, I'm always down for a photoshoot Just hit me up with a pm and we can schedule it. I think I wanna mount them this Monday but i'm not doing the photoshoot till I get my body kit on, which is going to take a little time cause i have to pay a ticket.

When you getting your wheels on? They finally fix your window thing?

And i'd love to sell you my old tires so I could buy new ones but i can't afford new tires and i basically 85% thread so no need

Yeah I fixed the window problem, stupid nissan. They couldn't diagnose the problem, like a bunch of retards. I rolled down my window, gently closed it, and you hear *CRACCKKKK*. I'm like are you guys stupid? Also they couldn't diagnose the sway bar problem either, so I turned onto a street and you hear *CREEAKKK*. But it's fixed now.

So when am I getting my wheels on. Very good question. I honestly have no idea. I have the money to buy tires, but I don't wanna spend that much on tires. It's this huge predicament. Plus another thing slowing me down, is that I may have to go to India next Wednesday, parents want me to see my grandfather, so I don't want to have them mounted on my car and have to worry about something happening.

Well for tires I know this local shop that's lower than any vendor and Americas tire doesn't price match this one place. For. 295 PS2 Americas tire charges 529 this place charges 295. I would buy the tires here brand new and gave them mounted at Americas tire. Lmk if u want more info. As for mounting them I would wait till u get back and we should definekt get a triple shoot going

Holy crap that's a great price! Almost too good to be true. I wonder if these are grey market or stale?

Anyway, please PM me the info or post it here. My tires (F1 GS-D3) are almost worn out and I need some PS2's.

I am running 255/35 and 275/35 now, but would like to try bumping up to a 285 in the back to help hold traction.

I might have to roll my rear fenders too for these to fit - I have a 19x10 rear with +15 offset.
