Really nice work. Can't believe I watched the video of you painting the bumper. Excellent work but what does that say about my life?

I love the tires. Anything with a 25 profile is good

did you mount the tires yourself or have a shop do them? Any respectable shop would switch them back without charge...

just received some information the offset's seems to be correct

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=I5X5ZZQL

but still the wheels are to deep in the rear i'm missing +- 28 mm offset
probably need to use adaptors of need other centers with -62 offset
always misery .....

I like your attention to detail. Your fitment is far superior to other fortune FD's on this forum. And, you're not even done yet!
