Wheels look good. Car... not so good at the moment with the wheels it does have but it does have potential though.

You are going to need a bigger tire to put down the power your 408 and t56 will put out. Wheels look good tho.

Thanks guys. With the setup I have I kno I could use more, the car can only fit so much.

I'll get a set of 15" drag rims and slicks for the track.

I really like those Montes. However, the car overall is going to look dark with the dark paint and wheels. Hey, drive those wheels down to LA and let's go from a dig.
