Hi R C6,
I agree, the wheels and tires make it look like a very different car.
Well Done!

Alan
Happy New Year!

Thanks again everyone.
Lupigiato 73, they are American Racing Torque Thrust 2's - size 17X8. The tires are Goodyear Eagle ZR45 - size 245/45/17. They just bolted right on and fit perfectly. Thanks again to my new Forum friend who sold them to me - thanks Mark!

I like the wheel size but I think the tires need more sidewall to fill the wheel arches better.

I don't disagree - maybe next time. I got the wheels and tires already mounted from a forum member and he gave me an incredible deal on them.
