Sorry to change the subject, But do any of you guys (Jclgodale3, Mllarson,Wnjlt1 & Red73) have ground clearance issues. At your lowest point how much clearance do you have. Are the headers your lowest point?

That's not a boat, it's a ship.

[QUOTE=akfox1;1562371059]Sorry, but I think the Torque Thrust II's are just about the best looking rims for a c3. I looked at almost everything and kept coming back to them.
They are getting pretty "common", but there's a reason for that.

Thanks for the portrait of how sweet my car would look with TTII's!
