Hey Tnfastbk,
I absolutely love the look of your wheels and tires. Do you have pictures of your car you can share? Just for clarity, you put on:
Front- 17x8 with 4.5 backspacing
245/45r17's
Rear- 18x9.5 with 5.5 backspacing
275/40zr18's
Can I just mount these directly to my car or do I need to do some suspension or other modifications? I read the link(s) but was still unclear. Also what brand tire did you go with?
One other question, you mentioned that you would have preferred going with the black chrome but it was not available. I was on their site and see that it is now. I'm restoring a '72 vert and painting it black sapphire pearl (a very dark almost black shade of blue). I have the chrome trim around the wheels and front hood trim, chrome bumpers, etc. I'm debating on whether the black chrome really goes well with all the other chrome "jewelry" on my car.
Any thoughts or pictures are really helpful.
Many thanks,
John
