Default Lowered with new CCW's....Pic's!

Santa came by my house early this year......Just got my new SP500's!!! The CCW's are 18"x10"F and 19"x11"R their tucked into Hankook Ventus V12's, 275/35 F and 305/30 R.
I knew you guys would ride me about the "4x4" look, so I lowered it on the stock bolts as low as it would go, while I had it on the jack stands!!! Thanks to everyone here on the Forum, for all the help, advice and great threads!!! A special thanks to "Toque" for all his help!!!
Hope you enjoy the pic's!!!


First Day Home....




First Mod....Painted and striped stock magnesium wheels




After today's hard work....

Wow! The difference is amazing. I really need to bucks up and get some decent wheels for next year. Unless I blow it all on a big motor!
