Default Rumble Rumble Rumble UPS man stopped by again

New wheels and tires. I like them, they are a mix of modern and classic. Yokohama AVID ENVigor 245/45R's
Also a video of the exhaust.

Your right-front tire is mounted backwards.
I like the way it all fits together though. 17's?

Yep I went around and checked that right after the pics. Right front and left rear were swapped. DOH!!! Almost got it right the first time. Yes they are 17X8's all around.

At least it was that easy and you didn't have 3 tires facing the same way. That'd be a pain! LOL

I should have known better and not let it happen the first time. I bought 4 Torque Thrust D's a while ago from TireRack and all four were going the same way. I thought I was going nuts, but they just forgot to mount them 2 one way and 2 the other.

Good thing you caught it or your car would run in circles like a zero-turn mower.

Great looking wheels and tires. Nice car too. Sounds good.
