Thanks... the rear is 18x10 black deep dish FR500 wheels wrapped in 275/40 NITTO NT555s then I have 18x9 black FR500 wheels wrapped in 255/45 NITTO NT555s on the front... I also have spacers on the rear which makes them stick out a little more

iROK24/7: nope... it goes past the wheel well but doesn't touch it... car isn't lowered so it doesn't rub or anything

ralphmustang: yeah, i had a white rocker stripe on it when i got it but then when i started modding it, i took a chance and peeled it off... i like it a lot better without the stripe... with all the things that i've done to beef up the body, the stripe was just taking away from it... it looks much bigger and much more aggressive without it

Thanks O'Connor...guess you better never lower it! The wheels wells would eat the tires or vice versa... OUCH OUCH KA-CHING!

What do you think of the "Functional Ram Air Kit"? Doesn't look like it yields a whole lot of gain for the money, but I really haven't seen anyone say one way or the other.

I honestly feel that you will gain more without it... that way the air cools the whole engine plus it still forces cold air toward the intake... I didn't install the kit because it is really cheap looking... and looking is the key word because it isn't a cheap part... lol... but I'm just going to leave it with the gloss black paint underneath the hood... it looks real good with all that shine!
