Default My new TTMs

Went with a BFG gforce sport in front and BFG drag radial in the rear. Got the rims from tomz and the fit great and are perfect. Just took a few pics of the rims in my driveway.

those look great on the car, nice choice. As far as caliper color, black would be good, maybe even paint them to match the color of the car.
