New Shoes
Got new wheels today. Torque Thrust II 17x8 255/50 and 17x9.5 275/50. Hope they look better once I get the drop installed. Sorry the pics are dark. It's raining and will be for days.

Re: New Shoes
It is better. I assume that's because of the new rubber.

Re: New Shoes
I don't like the rear offset, it looks tucked in too much. It stinks there's not better selection of rims and tires in 17".

Re: New Shoes
I know. Moved to a new house and the garage is not yet set up for heavy lifting. I did the hangers Monday at my friends house. Hope to finish it soon.
