ill probably go with 315/30/20 r888s on the rear when i need

or 295 35 20's.. what tires do you have that come in that size? supersports?
F14s! I have to get mine re-powdercoated because my matte black finish has faded due to car washes. Dumb me, I wasn't aware of how easily they can fade. I have Nitto Invos. Great tire. I originally wanted to go 305/35/20 in the rear but the only tires they have in that size are the michelin and Continental tires, and they are a bit pricey for a college student, lol. The tall tire and did slow me down a bit but I threw in the 4.10's to get some of the acceleration back.

How do you like the invos? The supersports are good in the heat but really bad in weather below 70.

My f14s are the textured bronze, the finish seems pretty good. Havent washed my car for like 6 months though.

Any side pics of your car? Wheels and tires look good in the sig

Invos are a good tire. Turn in response is great. They are very sticky so it has good traction and they hook up really well. No problems in the cold. And they ride really smooth. Not a lot of road noise. You feel like you are gliding when you are driving on decent roads

Got it. This is it when I first put the rims on. I've added a chin, gt500 spoiler and gt500 rear bumper to compliment to 20's
