Default Pics from last night, and new tires.

I recently put some new tires on and last night I cleaned her up a bit after a tune.

Tires 245-45-17 fronts 255-45-17 rear.. They fit good, but not as tall in the rear as the 235-55 was. I plan on dropping the car a bit very soon though.

Looks good but I agree it would look awesome a little lower all around.

Looks good, I think the rear height looks good, but the front should come down. But, I know that will be taken care of when you do your suspension. The car is looking good, the only thing that kills it for me is the new license plates with a rainbow on them

I think it should come down some in the front.
By the way, is that a hotwheels logo on the fender?

That looks very nice. I agree it definitely needs to be a bit lower in the front. I wouldn't change the rear though.

Yes I believe it is a HotWheels logo. Thats cool!

We used to call that the "nose up attitude", I always preferred the nose down on the fastbacks, but the nose up doesn't spoil the looks of that sweet ride.
Lookin' good!!!

Thanks guys. It wont be long before it sits a little meaner.

And yes it is a hotwheels logo painted on the fender. I start to think Its a little tacky sometimes, but the kids love it. I allways hear "Mom, Dad .. Look its a Hotwheels car!!!" So that makes up for it.
