Default Rear Widebody,Z06 chrome rims and 345 rear Nitto Invo tires IS DONE pics to see

Just finished working on my 2005 C6 A4 automatic. I installed a Vortec supercharger that made 574 HP at the end Nov. and this what I did next. Rear widebody, 12x19 and 9.5x18 Z06 chrome rims and Nitto Invo 345/30ZR 19's rear and 255/40ZZR 18's front. We still have snow on the ground and nasty on the streets. May have some rain next Tuesday. Man I need some clean streets. Heres some pics.

Default Yes

Yes I know. Last summer I installed a built 3.90 rear diff and a Pro Torque 2800 stall. A blast to drive. Just got to not be Stupid and be Lucky. Tranny may be in the future.

looks good. paint looks like it matches, how is it in the sun? did the body shop blend it into the doors and the bumper, or did they just try and match it?

Default shop blend

Paint supply place blended the paint to match. The paint supply place used the gas door and when the paint shop painted the fenders they forgot to paint gas door and still looks good. Dupont paint.

Default stock offset

Stock C6 offset with Nitto Invo 255/40ZR18. Fronts are 9.5x18 and rears are OEM speedlines 19x12 with 345/30ZR19. I purchased the rims from Bob at House of Wheels a forum vendor. The rears are OEM speedlines 19x12 with 345/30ZR19. Nice guy.

Aww you got me all excited. Just FYI nitto invos 345s are really about the same width as a normal 325s (~3.2 " width). I haven't had a chance to measure to see if a 345 will fit with the stocks wheels (13.8 width) and I thought this was confirming that .
