MrMeanGreen Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Thanks to Mike at Wheel Medic for working with me on locating some wheels, then color-matching and getting them powdercoated. They came out great, although my phone didn't do too well. I'll have better pics eventually when the weather gets nicer. http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mags1.jpg http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mags2.jpg http://www.cr-h.net/pics/mags3.jpg They're Y2K C5 wheels that started polished, but I thought the Magnesium wheels available for them would look good with my car and I wanted something different. They did them in the exact Magnesium color and these turned out nice. Rears are 18x10 and fronts are 17x9.5. Tires are rear Nitto 305/35/18 and front Sumitomo HTRZ 275/40/17. Thanks again, Mike and Wheel Medic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Again Vince, the pics are horrible. In person they really make the car stand out more than it does now. The bronze/grey color compliments the color of the car, thus why I went that direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 We're doing the engine on Saturday at the shop. If you look closely, notice there's no hood in the pics above. Makes things easier as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordell Posted February 3, 2009 Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Ever plan on dropping the car a little bit? I think he has a little too much drag strip motivation behind his plans.

MrMeanGreen Posted February 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2009 Ever plan on dropping the car a little bit? I did once, and it hurt my 60' times at the track. Not to mention, my exhaust hit everything being dropped (true duals). I know it rides kinda high, but the car is more drag race now than it used to be. I think he has a little too much drag strip motivation behind his plans. I wish I wasn't working Saturday, I like to help out with the XXXXXX work. Yeah, I know. What time will you be off? ehhhhh not feeling it yet antwon. You will once you see it in person wrong forum I know, one of my perks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
