Lookee My New Wheels!

[LeftLane]

I swapped out wheels and tires today, and I think it turned out pretty sweet.

Here's the old set-up:

Here is the new look - I think the gun metal color makes a world of difference.

These are from Chris at SoS...17x17.5 Bridgestones in front, 18x9.5 in rear. I picked the Yoko AVS ES100 tires....215/40/17 front, 275/35/18 in rear. They have very little noise so far and they feel great, but I haven't gone that far yet.

Enjoy!

Whats on the flag? Basketball something?

I think it's a turkey and pumpkins.

 

[FuryNSX]

Oh yeah!!! Really nice!!!! I'm diggin' the new look.

 

[LeftLane]

My wife is flagadelic - that is indeed a turkey with pumpkins!!!

We have a different flag for every occasion - Valentine's Day, Easter, Halloween, Xmas, Groundhog Day, Trash Pick-Up Day, Late For Work Day, I Got Lucky Day

nice setup!!

can you get those in 4 lug?
who makes them?

 

[LeftLane]

The wheels are Bridgestones Prodrives- I got them from Chris at Science of Speed. I don't know about the 4 lug availability - I've seen them with 7 spokes, but in 5 lugs. I would check out the SoS website: www.scienceofspeed.com.

Your old wheels were pretty good, but these are definitely a statement. Very bad; lots of attitude.

 

[PoohBEAR]

[ajnsx]

very nice, congrats! Now lower and paint your calipers red, please!

 

[NSXLuvr]

Can I get a AAAAAMEN!

p.s. cant wait till saturday.

 

[LeftLane]

Geez - I didn't realize I had a lift kit on my car!! It already feels like I'm scraping my crack on the asphalt - I don't think I'd like it any lower.

As far as painting the calipers...that's the next item to address. I suck at any project, even minor ones, so I'll probably procrastinate for a while until someone else volunteers to do it for me (any takers)?
