Oh yeah, I didn't think about the Nitto DR's. I forgot they run small. And I know that you can run a 315, but I have just heard its not a great idea. I wouldn't unless my wheels were 11". I just figured that was the best advice.

I always thought a black SS would look good with all gunmetal grey or flat black emblems. With stock wheels, just get a pair of 275/40/17 Nitto 555 R drag radials and call it a day. They'll wear long on the street and give you pretty good traction on the strip.

You should post up your pics in the appearance forum and ask them what they think. But my advice would be to stick with a two color theme. Your car is black, thats one color, and you can choose another. I think chrome looks good on black, so you could do the chrome letter inserts on the back, a billet grill or the slp grill looks really good too, a billet/chrome insert on the scoop, clear corners, and shine those wheels and tips up real nice. Kinda off topic but I guess I started it and you asked soo...

oh boy....obviously you have not

Try looking at what people have just posted about this being a technical forum, and take some pictures of your non-stock gauges and inside of the engine.



....emblems, etc are all opinion based....

Well, try to stay on topic, we have different sections for a reason. But to answer your question, its all up to what YOU want. Its YOUR car, if you want all chrome emblems, or think they look good, then go for it! Who cares if someone else doesn't like it, its not their car.

Also, try condensing your posts to just one post. You keep making consecutive posts, and thats not needed. Hope you stick around and remember to do a lot of searches/reading before posting. You will learn a lot. Good luck

Oh and how did the car go from stock cam....to mild cam and nitrous ...back to "pretty much stock?" I kinda spaced while reading the thread
