I just got my new rims and tires on, these are the rims a guy at work just up and gave me.
Now I just need to save up for some new springs.

Tires are BFG G-Force Super Sport A/S 225/45/17's

Probally my fave car of all time. Crazy thing is.....a few weeks ago at HIN out here in VA, it was parked IN THE PARKING LOT (not within the show), almost directly in front of my car out in the back of the parking lot at Dulles Expo Center. My friend Chris (NamedGobalt) can vouch for me b/c he was pretty much parked next to me in his yellow SS/SC. I got to physically walk up to it, take pics, and was out by my car when the owner later got in and drove it off. This car was in the actual HIN advertisement flyers last year. Turns out at this particular show, he procrastinated too much for registering it and missed the deadline.....so this car, which was probally sicker than any car within the show.......had to sit it out in the parking lot. I wish I woulda got a pic of it from the front with my car in the background, lol. But yeah, it had a bigger rear lip than a hooked up Lambo Mucerlago that was in the show. So sick.



Heres the link for its full photoshoot: http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=726655

oh, and its for sale! Can anyone spot me $55,000? lol....... http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=726655

But it looks like I might be getting some G5 GT rims & tires. 17's... but oh well. Better Acceleration! Haha.
Maybe we can can just pester them until they give in . I loved this wheel before , but after seeing them on my friends 350z , it would just be perfection on a SS . His are a really dark glossy gunmetal , kinda like that more than the black .

I would've gone Sportlines (my SS is on Sportlines), but either way, looks good man. One of the nicer 2.2's i've seen. Good choice in mods so far judging from the sig.
