Cool New Wheels & Some 315's :)

I shot these today with my Nikon D2x & 70-300 VR, as well as Tamron 17-50 f/2.8. Edited three of 'em in CS5 and left the others untouched. Pardon the soft focus in some of the shots & my dirty *** cars Enjoy.

Thanks man. I detailed for 6 years, I have more tire shine than I could ever want lol. Spray, gel, sponges, you name it. I just got the wheels on Thurs night and it's supposed to rain Sun though Weds, so I'm waiting on all that.

Sweetness. I put 315s on my 02 SS and loved em. I did have those same tires though, and HATED them! Switched to Nitto 555s and never looked back.

Thanks guys, these tires definitely have to go. I barely got on it once and went sideways immediately. I'm scared for rain!

That rear shot is sick, they are fairly common wheels but still make your ride look bad ***. The fronts look a little narrow though.

Thanks much, guys. Once it stops raining I'll clean it and post new shots, but it's been raining almost since the day I put 'em on. Supposed to be like this 'til at least Sun on and off.

They are scary in the rain. Even more so when bald lol. My driver side is worse than my passenger side, I was going around a left curve in the road and my car spun out for no reason. Luckily I didn't hit anyone. Im trying to find a good replacement. Been thinking about 555Rs but I don't know if they'll be ok In the rain

I like your background selection
