Tires are stretched too much. Wouldn't have done that large for a street wheel personally but to each his own. Welds look good though.

I think with a 315 on the back it would be perfect, and a 295 up Front

Love the wheels but if it was my car I would throw some bigger tires on the back! I would of gotten them in 15" but that's just me looks good but like said wider tires in the back you got 11" to work with back there!

As far as looks, i like it. But thinking about driving it makes me kind of cringe lol. Tiny sidewalls with big heavy wheels and super wide tires up front would make for a bumpy and jerky ride that follows every dip and line in the road.

Maybe i'm wrong.
no $*^t !!

Same here!

Some people are being overly critical just because it doesn't have the same tire size as everyone else and the same offsets and widths that everyone has. I think it looks awesome.

Looks perfect to me. What are the rim offsets? How much cutting was needed in the front?

Everyone is being critical of the tire size especially on the fronts, because they are 265's on 11" wheels! That's stretching a tire a little to much. Wheels look good on the car, but needs some wider tires especially in front.

Looks mighty fine to me

I've been running 315s on all four corners for years with no power steering issues, it'll be fine. Don't listen to the guys that haven't done it.

My car has spent most of its 13 years on 315s on all 4 corners (including Hoosier A6 slicks) with absolutely no issues. Only side affect is incredible handling. Those wheels look amazing OP, would love to have something like that on my car.

the more like look at it the more I like it! still think I'd like it a tad more with the wheels tucked back under the fender a bit, but i'm just nit-picking.. overall this is just a sexy car. love the stripes too! well done


just noticed you're in modesto, you gotta bring this thing out to one of our Norcal-lsx.com meets one of these days. we're planning to have a few central-valley events next year, so those should be easier for you to get to (most events are around the bay area and sacramento)
