Default New wheels on the sky! (56k warning)

18x8, 18x9 J1 wheels with 245/45/18 and 275/40/18 General Exclaim UHPs. Sorry it's filthy, rain > black car.

Sure beat the chromies I had on there... now it needs to come down about an inch and then it'll sit perrrfect. Pics dont do these wheels justice... they really complement it's look. I want to put faint pearl silver/blue ghost flames on the front, have the windshield surround + brake calipers painted black to match the body, smoke the reverse light &front side markers, and then its onto the interior. I'll post pics of the huge RPI intercooler when I get around to putting it on, for now you can see the stock one through the front grille. Also needs a custom plate, taking suggestions. My goal is to get it into a magazine by the end of 2008 Work in progress....

























This one with my show taillights in which are painted body color (with the old huge antenna which is now gone, as you can see in new pics)
