Back tires were ordered Monday night. So, I should have some installed pics by the end of the week. Hopefully the tires will be on my door step today or tomorrow.

Tires are supposed to be here tomorrow. If they get here early enough, I'll be able to get them mounted on the rims tomorrow afternoon. Otherwise, it won't be until Saturday morning.

Didn't have time to wash it. But here's a few quick pics when I got home from putting them on. Surprisingly, I really didn't have to BFH too much. They never rubbed on the way home, which is country roads with pretty big dips, at 55-60 mph. I did strip a stud on accident. But, I'm going to end up getting longer ARP studs anyways. I'll just have to take it easy the next few days before I get them.

Whats the big deal about 275's on a 10.5 inch wheel? Is that too small? I had OEM Z06 wheels and the rear was 18x10.5 and they had 295's. Right? lol! My 9.5 inch rims now have 275 and they look good.

LOVE the new wheels, exact wheels i want but i think i'll go for the Argent

Supposedly, the 275's are too small. But, the section width of mine are 11 inches. It's barely stretched on the wheel. I actually really like how it came out. The 275's aren't stretched much, and the 335/30/18 Nitto DR's don't have much of a bulge.

Wow 335s? ON 10.5 inch wheels? Sweet! Do you have any pics? I prefer that bulging look like when the tire kind of slants in to the rim. BTW, do you have any videos of your exhaust set up? I really want to hear it, plus, what X pipe are you using and where did you get it? I have a 96 WS6 and i want LT's into an x pipe into two Borla XR1s into Corsa Clones!

I can get some better pics of the rear tires here in a while. And for the exhaust, just go to my cardomain link, in my sig. It's just a Jegs 2.5" universal x-pipe, with eBay knockoff Flowmaster single chambers.

Looks great. Can we get some closeups of the sidewalls?
