Love the wheels Sean. With those rubberband-like sidewalls, obviously you need a drop.
 I would still go with a 40 series sidewall. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

I would still go with a 40 series sidewall. Thanks man. S-Techs are on order, and these tires are going to stay for probably only a few months until next springs. This is my wife's daily driver and the most ecinomical car we have to drive, so it's going to see a ton of miles. I don't give these tires too long of a life. Admittedly though, it doesn't look toooooo terrible. Just gotta take the lift kit out of the car now.

I remember first seeing your post about getting these rims and I fell in love with them so much I had to buy a set. They look really good on your car, and that swap has to be fun!
