Im normally a very large TT hater, but that setup looks sick, especially the blk/white contrast. How are those tires?

NICE!! I'm thinking of going with those wheels, in anthracite, on my NBM Formy.

I love the white/black contrast, and the Formy looks great in white.

I'd like to hear more about the tires too, maybe in a few weeks after you try them in the rain and get more of an impression of them.

some look bigger than others bc they are bigger than others...nitto's are one of the smallest 315 tire and bfgs are one of the biggest (IIRC)

i understand that, it comes as a disappointment sometimes when they don't look wide. when I bought rims off of TS6, he showed me his procharged camaro on some beefy 28 inch slicks, but then in the corner, he had 325 drag tires(forgot the brand), and he told me they barely measured over 10 inches wide...

I was out today playing around a little. I must say when I take a corner the car stays clued to the road. I make a right hand turn at about 20 mph and roll into it threw the turn and I stay hooked to the road even with my gears and stall. No fish tailing at all. I am really happy with them so far.

Don't know if I will see rain with them. Its a weekend play car and I live in AZ.. We just had are rain for the year. lol
