Lol yeah I should add that.

I'm lowered about 2.5 inches and I have no idea if CV3's would even FIT on my car

loots, can you repost that here? I don't want to sign up there.

I really dig those shelby cs1's - if they are light weight and aggressive offsets, I am jumping on them.

lots of width difference there. that is the difference between a weenie 245 tire and a 305/315 tire on the rear!

On the width, there is a big difference. If you didn't know already, when you get to a certain width you typically stagger them (thinner in the front, wider in the back).

Staggering eliminates the chance of rotating tires if that is of any importance to you.

Going wider in the back will give you more traction obviously. Changing the diameter and/or width of the wheel from stock will require a tune and your mpg may appear to take a hit I believe too but I'm not real sure so someone will probably correct me soon.

Those CV3s give me chills.. so sexy.. and baker, you're car looks amazing with that new front end!
