Default This is what I ended up with....
Posted a thread for WTB wheels locally within a budget. Had tons of offers/pm's and finally decided on these. Factory 17x9 WS6 wheels w/ 275/40/17s all the way around.

I couldn't believe the difference it made to me going from a 16x8 to a 17x9 with these tires. I love an agressive factory look.

Thanks for the compliment! Your ride's pretty sick as well!!

Only thing left appearance wise on my car to be 100% satisified, is a real good paint correction/wax n shine. And I'm in need of a repaint on my front bumper as well. The clear coat is flaking in a few small spots.

DavidWS6 from RCP. I traded him a VFN WS6 hood and my sleek beek straight across for the WS9 Outlaw. He wanted to make his 6??+rwhp T/A a sleeper.
