much better f chrome, I've even heard chrome wheels intensify brake fade because they reflect the heat back at the break unlike dark ones which absorb it

 

LOL I was thinking the samething and saying why would he post that ROFL
Anyway looks 100% better dude and a drop would def make it even better

 

Looks good. Glad to see you got hooked up with proper size tires.

 

No problem Stewart! I'm glad you are enjoying the new setup The Rota Torque's are definiately a huge upgrade over your previous setup

HUGE improvement!

 

Big step up from the old wheels.

Looks good!

 

so u'd rather have the chrome 20's?

 

NICE!

 

nope. Rotas are no better than chrome 20's with horrible offsets.

 

on the new wheel/tire setup, with one minor reservation.... I think a slight drop would make the setup look better.

but, the pictures are dark so it's difficult to see the fender clearance.

Looks great! I had no idea 275's would fit so good, I just ordered the same tires but 255/40-18 275/40-18 rear, how do you like the hankooks. I read awesome reviews about them.

 

It's a bit early for me to review the v12's but my initial impression is a good one. Cornering ability is much much better, but I was coming from 20 inch wheels with 245 diameter worn tires. I really don't have anything to compare the tires too. Once I'm able to autox it a few times I'll have a better idea, but that won't be for a bit because the car needs a couple more things done before I'm really ready to push it.

Road noise is a possible drawback. I'm hearing a strange slow pulsing coming from the front tires. (sounds like someone is humming for a second or two then it stops for a few seconds) I'm pretty sure it's from the grooved pavement here in Colorado, but I need to pull the wheels and make sure nothing is rubbing/etc.
Anyone on here with 275's up front that can comment?
