I haven't even washed the car or tires, but here is the car straight from the tire shop. The rear needs a serious rolling but I'm pretty happy with it. :)

Other than the tires being too small sidewall wise, looks good.

Since you stretched the tires i'm assuming you have plans on going lower....Which would be straight sexy, but even now sexy :goodjob:

Beautiful car. Very beautiful. I didn't know the tires were stretched until someone mentioned it.
Hate, though, absolutely hate the tilt hood. Later, QD.

Thanks guys. Yeah its a very mild stretch, just enough to get them under the fender. They are 205s on an 8 inch wheel. Hopefully tomorrow ill get the time for a good detail. The car is filthy. Lol

I hate the hood propped in the back but the wheels make this car come out man. It looks great . Im not a real big fan of these body styles but loving it with the wheels . You need to let me hook it up with a nasty paint job now :) I just got finished repainting the bumpers and fixing the carbon fiber hood and wing on the hatch i got from joey . Ill post up some pics when its back together tomorrow it want even look like the same car. I even pulled the carpete out and cleaned lol.

i think the wheels look great on this car... but im with everyone else on the hood being propped, it looks like there is something wrong with it

Thanks everyone. Evan you think it's too dark or what? Just wondering..
As for the spacers, it serves it's purpose so it will stay for now. Temps are still around 200-210 or so when sitting(which is normal for KLs in the heat), but it stays consistent and doesn't just keep rising. Remember theres a V6 crammed in there, not much space to breathe, lol.
Once I figure out a solution for fitting a bigger fan on the radiator I shouldn't need the spacers. :goodjob:

You just have a lot of black and white, then bronze got thrown in there.
By no means bad looking, I just think it could look better, lol.

Xxr 521 in matte bronze, 16x8 +20.
As hot as that intake manifold gets, id tell u too prop the hood more louis!
Lookin good man! I think people are used to people propping the hood for no reason at all, but its well worth it and needed with that kl and the crazy heat soak that manifold has.

They are used to manifolds being behind the motor, not on top. ;)
And I added some pictures after a wash on the first page. Anyone want to come wax it? I'll pay! lol

the front wheels looks to be wider than the back and the front is higher than the back....other than that shits tuff boss
DeeAOne
07-15-2011, 05:27 PM
They are all the same but the front is higher. My axle is an 1/8 inch too long on the driver side to go any lower right now. It will bind up if I do. I'm working on that. Lol

They are the 521s, just in bronze. They aren't as common as the flat black or polish lip combos, but I like these the most. :goodjob:
Thanks guys.
