New wheels/tires & taillights

Made a couple of changes (after getting flamed about my old wheels & taillights)

The wheels are sportmax-009 7.5" upfront 9.5" in the back. The tires are Falken RT-615
235-40-18 & 265-35-18 I have got to find my receipt to see what the offset is (sorry cant remember) The susspension is Eibach springs with tokico struts.

Beatiful! ;-)

The 18s and eibach springs to a good job of filling up the wheel well

Your FD looks real clean. I had no idea you could rap a 235 onto a 7.5 inch wheel. Any particular reason you went 7.5 up front?

They offerd a 8.5" front wheel but the lip on the 7.5" was wider 2.5" (the rear's are 4") I wanted more of a aggresive look to the wheels thats the only reason I went to that size up front. Part of the reason the car looks so clean (other than Iam a clean freak) The car only has 13,455 miles on it, And paint is all original.......
