Pics of the new wheels Wheels are American Racing Casinos 20x8.5" on Toyo Proxes 255/35s and the fenders have been rolled in the rear. I know I need to get my front windows tinted but the cops here are dicks and will give me a fix it ticket in a second. I'll try to get some more pics later.

Thanks everyone. Ya I do love black but chrome would have looked good on this car also.
The Guz, ya I was thinking of lightly tinting the fronts. Wouldn't know how much though.
06MonteSS, no rubbing so far but haven't had the back seat full of passengers yet. The back tires may rub against the rear part of the plastic wheelwell liners so I may have to modify those.

That looks grrrrrrrrr-eat! Keep an eye out for any rubbing on the fender liner. Maybe spray some paint on there and see if it gets rubbed off...? I think I'm going to buy a fender roller on eBay and then sell it when I'm done...instead of renting it. I bet I could make most of my money back on eBay.
I need me some lowering springs...but probably should have looked at your pics before I dumped $260 on some new headlights
So much for priorities! Maybe that will be my Summer slogan, since I seem to reorganize priorities on a daily basis.

And SSWS6....some tire shine and let me detail that thing and you'll be in business (even though the car looks awesome now with rims/springs). It looks very refined.

Guz, ya something like that would be perfect, and I might get away with it.
Buff, thanks, thats a good idea about painting that. I had the car on a lift before and there is a place on the fender liner where clearance is minimal and the plastic has marks from the stock tires rubbing. But I think its only an issue with people in the back and big bumps in the road. I want to see those headlights after you get them mounted and hooked up.
Nacho, ya I didn't dress the tires yet. I just washed the car (at 10am) and before I dried the windows the damn hood was almost dried from the sun! So the car probably has water spots in those pics, but you're right I should detail and polish that car.
