    Either ways hummers tiens were cut in the front.lol the rear tiens were never cut and the Neuspeeds were cut in the front as well. (hence my change to coilovers).

    Noooo.lol 17s would never fit in my car. Im talking about my tires. I have 205/45 series tires which are too tall. 205/40 are smaller so they let my go lower.

    Press; Thats a completely different look.lol wayyyy different than the ones in the pics. if thats the care you are gonna want some 195/50R16 or 195/55R16 series tires. 55 series if you are more worried about filling fender gap.

    195/50/R16 Sounds good I thought when you had me look for style you meant what style rims but what you understood works too. If I buy the tires sunday it won't be tough to find some rims for that size later on right? lol :p

    Not at all. This is what it might look like later depending on what rim spec you want. Idk it you are going with a 16x7 inch rim or a 16x8.

    this is what it would kinda look like with a 15x8 +10 except higher off the ground and higher in the front cuz teins dont really give you an even drop.
    [IMG]

    nah in (205/40R17) The number that indicates Rim size is what comes after the R. 205 is how wide the tire is and 40 is the height.

    you always make me laugh senior mack

    Nah bro get them, it'll be sick. I'd lose the Drag caps if you get them though, I don't like em. I'm still a few weeks away, maybe a month from getting rims.

    OK, we just had that discussion about tow hooks, right? Well why the heck is one sticking out of the hood lol. And why they always have to put a sticker on there that says "TWO HOOK" like it isn't obvious lol.
    well yeah I know about the tire sizes, but I didn't think about the fact you are running a wider wheel... makes sense

    Those will work nicely for sure. But IMO, they have too many spokes. What about Drag DR-9, did you see those? They are similar, but with half the spokes lol (like 9 or 10). Not sure about the tires though.

    Yeah get that tire size just know that the bigger the tire, the harder to lower it will be. However those wheels are kinda eh in my opinion. They dont pop, not to mention that they have 40 Offset, which is really boring, and not flush at all. To get them to come out you are gonna need 15-20 mill spacers.

    Haahahahaha. I'll summarize the story on this tow hook. This guy actually tracks his car SERIOUSLY, hence the tow hooks and stickers. And the top one was just because he saw it on a car and liked it so he did it for his car too. All tow hooks are functional and definitely have been used.

    I have to agree with this.

    No stretched tires here. Hes running 15x7 with a 185/55 tire. But I do agree. Too much gap.

    YES but it will look ehh without spacers or without negative offset added

    OK, so he takes his car seriously, that's awesome. I was following you until you said he did the hood hook because he saw someone else do it. Which is form over function, IMO. Not much form though haha. So what has he used that one for? I'm still trying to figure that out.

    Just because he copied something doesn't hinder its function. Its not form over function when it still serves a purpose. I don't know either, but I'm a nice enough guy to just give him the benefit of the doubt. I remember him telling me that he used it. If you are so sore about it ask him!?

    I like how you are posting all the information about this guys car, do you still talk to him, or are you going back and reading his old posts? This information was already there. He has the hondaboy-rear-bumper-hole-mod thing too.
