Default Baby Needs New Shoes....

Baby got new shoes...............


Thanks to Dave, aka grabberorange1 for his input on the Toyo Proxy S/T's, and also socal2fast for his pics of the same tires....Went with 255/40/20 front, and 295/40/20 rear. Vast improvement in the 20 inch ride quality, wheel gap on non lowered car, and definately much quieter.......Thanks guys!!

Thanks Ken....Yeah, for those of us that are lowering challenged... It really does fill em out much better. The tire guys were worried about the 295/40's, but they fit perfectly....Thanks buddy...

Thanks partner. She definately needed em. The increased sidewall basically takes care of all the issues I had with running 20's, so looks like the silver bullit take offs may go on the for sale threads....

Thanks guys....

The larger wheels definitely give a nicer look to the car. Wider wheels always looks a lot meaner than stock.
