I decided in was time for some new shoes so I contacted Eric at getyourwheels.com and he hooked me up. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for wheels/tires! Also, had to purchased angled anti-foulers for the CNT HFCs, CEL every 10 miles and now 2,000 miles later NO CEL!!!

The next day after I put on the wheels and tires, I swapped out the shiny burgers for the sexy black chrome burgers





The following day it was time to drop this beast on Swift Spec-R springs.
1.25" drop front and 1" drop rear. That small drop made a huge difference IMO to improving the appearance and stance! The ride is a little harsh but thats part of the game. Cruising on a decent road is great, but the rough stuff is definitely amplified now. Ironically I scrape less with a drop than I did before, because I took the front air guards off. The only thing that has gotten me after springs is a huge deformed speed bump. Anyways heres the pics





Thats me in the background drooling

Thanks fellas I definitely do appreciate it! Those wheels are sweet and to be honest I don't think there's anything better for the price.

The following week it was time to go dark Went to a local graphics shop that does amazing work and went with 20% 3M tint all around (ha stupid 50%/35% VA limit). Two days later slapped on the Bluebatmobile 6/10 20% vinyl taillight overlays with reverse cut out for that different look. Turned out great and after about 2 weeks still no trouble from the man
