Lookin good. It would look killer if it were lowered about a 1/2 inch or so. I see you have the Vredestein tires. I've got them on for a few months now and they rock. I'm sure you will like them too.

The engraving, while not too legible in the picture, seems to say, "Weld Racing, Forged EVO".

Yeah Weld Evo BC-10's.

19x9.5 in the front, 19x11 out back.

I like them so far Shawn.
always check tightness on new wheels, back left loosened up on me after the first drive. could have been bad

Gotta practice some more with this SLR as most of the photos could have come out better.

looks like I've been working on some shoes, and you have been working on some more mods. keeping the stockers for some drag radials for this winter drag season coming up. hopefully it doesn't rain out every day like last year.

I'm gonna try and make the willow springs event the 25-26 of october with the cobra club if you are game.
