Looks cool man...i was just curious on how much a 275 would fill up the back end. I still one day will break down a buy rims for a 315. I wonder if they make that rim in a 17x10.5.

Thanx for the extra pics

Dood, SWEET ride, BUT...



The treads on your driver rear and passenger front are heading in the wrong direction and with directional radials, that's a bad thing. I can't tell if you can just flip flop the front because I can't see the driver side, but the rear will need to be remounted because the passenger rear is heading in the right direction and flipping sides will do you no good. Take it back to where you got them mounted and have them mount them correctly - at no charge. It's a safety issue.

HIJACK alert! I just love the look of silver Cobras, (shameless plug) and I think they look killer on an SN95!

dude are your front tires on backwards????

edit... damn looks like somone beat me to it. yea id get them remounted and make sure they don't charge u for it... It IS a safety issue, and you would think a shop would know how to freakin mount tires the right way.

Like I said in my PM, do it tomorrow. Don't wait. I checked weather.com and it looks like some weather might be moving in on you by Thursday or Friday. If you get caught in the rain with it like that, you're toast. I wouldn't drive it a foot like that in wet weather.

We have the same rims, except mine are 18's. But they are satin finish with the inside powderocated gunmetal, just like yours. I love 'em!
