Cool new pics tires and rims

Well....I finally got my new tires and rims put on. Tires are: Kumho Supra 712 275/45/17 Rims are Torque Thrust II 17X9.5 all around. I went with the cross drilled/slotted combo on the rotors and the Hawks HPS compound pads. I also installed clear corners. let me know what you all think

Sharp lookin ride, but have to agree with everyone else needs a more agressive stance.

Overall looks good, but your rear wheels tuck a little too far inside the wheel wells which kills that "aggressive" stance that many of us strive for.

Of course that's just MHO

Very nice wheels regardless

looks good. Should have gone with a 17x11 out back though. I am also lookin at TTII's but im not lowering my car no matter what. I like the way it looks & rides at stock height.

I think they would have looked better with a gunmetal center. That is just IMO. I agree with the drop. It looks way to tall.
