lets see those wheels
« on: October 30, 2009, 02:31:54 PM »
I know there is a thread over on TAC like this but I thought we could start one here too.
show us your wheels and stance.

Here's mine 255/6015 BFG's on 15x7 snowflakes
Hoping to get 17 inch snowflakes.
My rims are painted the incorrect colorand it bugs me alot also like the chrome that is on the 17's

I have 275/60 15's on the back...

I have 255/60 15's on the front...  

Does anybody else have issues with the fronts rubbing... ? 

Trying to decide if I should go smaller or trim the lip on the guard... 2 many decisions..

Here's mine.  Sorry for the picture.  I took this just after I finished putting the back end back in the car.  I sent the rims to Hitman for the shine :)

I have the same as you up front and have never noticed  a rubbing issue . I don't care for the look ,its to fat imo . I would like 245r 60 15's instead possibly .I just don't like the fact that they are shorter than stock yet again
