Default check out my new tires!!!!

What do you think? I know everyone says it cant be done and I dont recomend it, but the choice is yours!!!!!
Nitto 317/35-17R DRs on 17X9 Stock Ws6 Rims.
I think they look perfect!







Now I just have to wait a few months to test them out

well i think they fit nicely,there is no bulge of tire by the lip of the rim......
looks like you are ready for some 1.6 60' times with your new set up let that S60 have it!!!!! be sure to do a couple of small burn outs on those nittos before you hit the track! ET prediction 11.8@ 116

200 + shipping tread on the tires is just at the wear line so there is plenty of track time left on them

Plus Lots of cops around here and the car will be loud as hell once I throw on the TDs. Dont need another reason to get pulled over. Not sure why but I have never put tints on any of my cars??..........and I thought you were gonna say a rear mount turbo.

Looks pretty good. I can't wait to get some nice stickier tires.

Also I will never own another car WITHOUT tinted windows.

Thats how I felt when my car was stock with those SS rims and DRs= 0 spin at the track.
It was only the time slips that made me happy! LOL!

Looking good hotrod. I just need to get some nice tires for my 16" formula rims. I think though I might have to snag a set of 17" like those.
