Personal opinion: wheels look nice, I've always liked the low offset wheels

Personal opinion: quoting "the fast and the furious" is ghey

. Kinda defeats the purpose of running a wide wheel dont you think? I run a 8.5" wide wheel with a 255 tire on the stock struts, lowered on RCE's.

Sean already stated numerous times they are for looks only. I would agree that I personally would run a wider tire for performance aspects, but for the purpose of looks they are appropriate. besides the stockers are always there whenever he needs to hit the track

im really feelin the aggresive blacked out look
i also like the body kit and rims
cant comment on tire or wheel size, as i've never had aftermarket before
but i think you might just need some tint to complete the look - maybe 20% or 35%
or even put the wing back on

nice paint btw
sweet car
