CCW Rims - Pics

I bought some CCWs off a person on the forum about 6 months ago... finally got around to getting some pics and a little page up...

Think I should raise my ride height? How much does the suspension actually move?

Thanks,
Brian

with the wheels stillon, jack up your suspension one at a time to see how far upward the tire moves and it will give you some idea of your needed clearance

cant go wrong with CCW's! they look great!

Nice wheels AND tires.

Let us know how you like the Toyo RA-1s. They have been extremely popular around here for many many years.

This will be my fourth set of the RA-01s. I ran them in 225/50-16 on my 87 TII and in that same size on my stock FD rims. They tolerate heat cycles / street driving very well and only start to harden up or loose their stick at the end of the tire life after you've driven them a pretty good while on the street. If you do more track events, they wear down faster than they wear out from the heat cycles, so you can run them practically right down to the cords and they still perform well.

Looks great Brian, very sharp wheels !

Just a helpful suggestion: '99 look taillights.....would really complete the badass look you have goin' on IMO.
