Well here they are TSW 19x8/9.5 staggered setup, with Goodyear F1 GS-D3's in 245F/275R/35's. I love them, let me know what you all think!

Figured I would go a different route and get chrome instead of the usual silver mesh wheels so many seem to have.

great tire choice... the rims really aren't my style, but they look alright - they would have looked better silver, however...

with the 8's in the front with offset 20, you think your going to rub when lowered?

Looks great! It also looks alright left at stock height, but judging from the pic you attached, it doesn't seem like it'll rub if you decide to lower it later.

Sang,
It is the 8 with 20 in the front. I also relplied to your PM.

bwz,
Silver on silver does look good but then again I didnt want to be rolling around with a Z that looked as all the others on this board and in this CIty do. I wanted something different so I went the bling route.

dnguyent,
I really dont thnk that they will rub with springs. Id I do lower it im going to go with something like a .8 front and 1.0 rear drop. Know any brands that are within this range ?

Sang,
I thought I posted all those pics, but tell me what you want and I can take the pics tomorrow. I just got done using G2 to paint the calipurs and that is something I never want to go through again!

its just that i want to see the car far away, maybe like 20 feet away so you can see the whole flow of the car and wheels. If you can take one at wheel height. You don't have too though.


thank you though if you can

Sang,
Car has not been lowerd yet, and I dont know if i plan too. The roads in Lubbock TX are horrible.

No the wheels on the Z in the banner add are the BC Forged wheels and run around $700 pop.
