i have a 225 on my 8" wheel on my car now. it's not stretched at all.
bulging tires are for dudes that don't want to go low or turn corners. fact.

225's belong on 7" or 7.5" max.
For an 8 you should be around 235-255.
ill be on 245's as soon as i have the $ but for now, ill rock the 255's/225's
are you going to leave those rims that chrome-ish color?
itd be easier to sell them if i dont paint them...
truth. same hereQuote:

traction is pretty hard to break when you have AWD. don't need beefy tires.
Lets take the pilot sport a/s plus:Quote:

projects to come since im bored and want to do something to the car:
- lowering the car more. this consists of adding more preload as well so i dont smash my axles. probably another 1/2" at least.
- want to make a custom plaid shift/e brake boot set.
- need to get a new shift knob, and potentially make a beer tap shift knob to screw on for shows.
Colored lugs!
shaved decklid noawww
i'll give you a buck to put this on your whip.

Lower would be fun.
lower is happening this weekend maybe. tonight im gonna stop by the crafts/materials store to see if they have any plaid material that i'd like. i need to find something fairly thick for it to look right.
haha your going to look funny in a fabric store
A fabric store is embarrassing?
God forbid you went into a sex shop.
still waiting for lower.... in the meantime.....

i was already in the fabric store. it was just hard finding something thick enough in the right style. i've got it though, probably won't get to it for a little while though.
ordered two new shift knobs today. a nice extra heavy one for daily driving cause im sick of the light one i have now and a giant awesome beer tap handle to screw in for shows.
pictures to come later!
