Default CCW Classics - teaser pics

Sorry for the crappy pictures but the car is still put away for winter for another couple months so I can't really move it, plus I don't get to be excited about much in the middle of winter. I just bought the wheels from a member here, and I bought new Toyo TQ 315/35-18s for the rear and a pair of nearly new Michelin 275/35-18s for the front. The wheels are 18x10 and 18x11.5. Sorry the car is dirty. Also, the suspension needs to come down some more; part of it is because it needs to re-settle after I jacked it up to put the wheels on.

I will get some good pics in the spring. FYI, it was -15* F here this morning....

VERY nice set-up! Cheers to you for doing that in the weather we've had these past few days. The weekend should feel like a heatwave at 30*!
