Um got more pics? I'm not a big fan of 17" rims, the back looks great though. You need to lower it asap though

those 335's are some meats! i would've thought that tire would be too wide to fit a 10.5" wheel. nice!

Lol thanks everyone. The tire fits damn good on the wheel. A lil big but whatever. It is a kumho ecsta v700. And desert ls1 I have no idea why the gap is like that since I bought it back in March. I even bought a new bumper and it didn't change.
