Tire Size
Thanks for the complement !!!
I am running 245 x 60 x15 all the way around. I was not sure what would look best & many members chimed in with their thoughts on tire sizes. There really are many options you can go with. Joe Padavano had recommended these & some members sent in pics of their cars with this size tire & liked the way it looked so went with them. I am very happy the way the car sits . Also no issue with rubbing on fender whatsoever. In fact I ha put one right next to the 225 x 70 x14 tires that were on the car & with the obvious fact that the 245 are wider the height size was almost identical. The shorter sidewall does give less lean then the 70 so regardless if you go wider or not I would definitely go with the 60`s over the 70`s . Hope I helped you a little.
As far as the rims go these are powder coated costs $75.00 each ( here in NY ) which included the blasting. The color Argent was driving me crazy since as with any paint there will always be slight variations from batch to batch so just just opted for the gunmetal. Realized I was spending way too much time deciding which color was correct so I went with the gunmetal since it was in the ballpark & more importantly I like the color.
Any other questions please ask.

I bought them off Ebay for $100.00.....for the set of (4)
I originally purchased the 2 3/4 deep rings but they were too short ( were not deep enough ) so I returned them & went with the 3 inch deep rings. There were a few people who had them on ebay !
