Default My Long Search For Classics Has Ended!!

Here are few quick pics I snapped of my car in the parking lot at school. I was able to find a set but the finishes dont match. I have an event coming up so I needed the tires put on ASAP (Thanks Aaron! ) so I will paint them to match later. Thanks to those here who helped me look for some.

For just the street rubber they are wide enough. All four are T1 17x10 spec wheels.

For those who didnt see my old thread I upgraded to C5 brakes in the front and they didnt fit my old wheels. I figured the T1 front size would allow me to keep the tires I already had and would fit the car well. I couldnt afford new CCWs so I pieced a set together of used wheels.

Good for you bud!! It's always nice to see things work out for the shoestring guys. BTW, if you still need those ZR1's just let me know, I can't seem to move them!

Car looks good!
