MrMeanGreen Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 I had to ditch the black wagon wheels. No: http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj32/Formula98/11-18-085.jpg The gf was really nice and went down to Cincy today to pick up the new wheels since I had an emergency call in Akron. I found them via a friend via LS1Tech for $500. Chrome ZR1s with 285/40/17 Goodyear Eagle GS-Cs all around and he threw in a pair of Mickey Thompson DRs as well. Sorry for the crappy pics, but cold + me shivering + my camera's night shot = blurry pics. These are the best out of the dozen I took. I'll have more when it's nice and bright out. http://www.cr-h.net/pics/formula2/newformula15.jpg http://www.cr-h.net/pics/formula2/newformula3.jpg http://www.cr-h.net/pics/formula2/newformula7.jpg http://www.cr-h.net/pics/formula2/newformula9.jpg Huge improvement.

19TbirdSC91 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Yeah, looks a lot better, would look nice lowered a little, especially in the back. I like those wheels though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye1647545503 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 looks good but looks like a wheel spacer in the rear might help or yet more tire if poss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 The front has Eibach springs, as did the rears. Brian removed the rears due to clearance issues with the exhaust and installed B4C springs instead. I'm gonna put another pair on and reconfigure the exhaust.

blue98ls1 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 The gf was really nice and went down to Cincy today to pick up the new wheels Being really nice is a trip to wendy's for you at 1am. A 4.5 hour road trip for wheels = you must be pretty fucking special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye1647545503 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Do you at least get the black wheels for your car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrMeanGreen Posted February 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 The other Formula has 305s in the back right now Andrew, I got something for you. It's not the blue one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 navy blue with black is the biggest fashion faux pas that can be made. Glad to see you got rid of that ASAP. If you see more good deals on ZR1's with rubber let me know. I am in the market, just got tax refunds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICEMAN1647545504 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Looks very good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 Sweet Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Great buy! I loooove ZR1's, and in chrome they complement NBM perfectly. Wagon wheels suck, and black rims on NBM is gay, so you killed two birds with one stone Nice car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceGhost Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Looks a hell of a lot better than those gay rims I had on it. I was feeling for you reading this thread. This is why I will never sell my car to someone on this board, I couldn't stand to see it changed than how I have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
