Default Another dark star picture thread..

Well, I finally got my ls3 swap done a few weeks ago. Just got the drag setup put on last week. Finally snapped a couple pictures quick with my phone after work yesterday.








15x10 with 295/55/15 ET streets and 15x3.5 with 165/6015's --I think that's the fronts I can't remember off the top of my head.

I'd like to get out with my real camera one of these days and get some better pictures. I thought these came out decent for being from my phone though.

Did you have to grind on the calipers a lot? Were the wheels the universal or direct drill?

My wheels are uni-lug. Kinda wish they were direct drill but oh well. I'm not sure how much I "have" to shave down. I just went wild with a grinder to make sure they cleared.

I've gotten a few more shots from the summer time. Car's put away for the year now so this is what I get to do.. look at pictures. lol









And if any of you are on facebook and follow the group "LS nation" you might remember this picture. I guess they liked it and shared it. It got nearly 1,000 likes so I thought that was pretty cool!

one word for this car awesome. I have been driving my this car Executive for 3 months now. The car is amazing. The drive is smooth. The car handles the potholes and bad roads excellently.
