nice car man, the rims really set it off, only thing that draws back is the rivets on the rims, but i guess thats a personal preference.

Looks sick as hell. Just got one question in general, why do the rear tires on like.. all vipers I see seem to small for the wheels? They seem like the sidewall is bent outward a little as if your running a 275 tire on a 11inch wide wheel. Even though I'm guessing thats the normal 335 or whatever they run, but still. Anyone else ever notice that on vipers?
