Back in the saddle again!!
Welcome back Moose! I had an nightmare the other night that someone hit me in an intersection, then I woke up. Paint looks good from a far. How does it look up close? Around the seams, corners, and such. Any over spray?
If you stripe it again, I like the drak charcoal metallic or a black with a pearl mixed in so it kind of shimmers under the lights. Just a thought. I saw a guy with a redfire 06' with a raised hood and the dark charcoal metallic. It looked great!
BFG makes the KDW2 in a 285/40/18. It's overall diameter is 27". It would work great if you got the 18" bullets.

That doesn't look bad. I could hardly tell if the rims were the same.

I know my thoughts also.
From memory when I tried them on just to see ( 17 frt's & 18's rr) I was surprised it was kind of hard to tell they were different sizes, I think the DD has a little to do with it I think it helps a littleto disguise’s the size difference because your looking at a dd vs a non DD. But really when I looked at them you really have sit there star and go back and forth frt to rr to pick up the size difference.
Yes like someone mentioned you will have work out the profile size to get them close if you go this way. A guy I know from these forums Viking 396 (& yourself in the past anyway
)S/C 06 GTthat Igo to car hangoutsandother friends I knowrun DR’s 24/7 and that profile is much further off that frt stock tires so that is not that unseen.But yeah if you want them close you will need to look into the size combos, one tire company that make less common profilescombos is Conitinetal and have recieved good reviews from what I remember when lookin a year ago. I went with Cooper Zeon A/S (45 day free trial money back) they had a thread wear rated double of theother common tires guys go with itslike 4.00 if I remember correctly and have read 36,000 no problem.
Fwiw one otherthing Vettesdo run 18" rears and 17' fronts .
