Default New Shoes!!

First I want to thank SW (He's a Fikse dealer) for being such a great guy and really helping this purchase go well! I owe you a beer or two at SEMA!!!

Ok, what did I get? Fikse Profil 10's w/ Race Black centers. I can't tell you how nice and light these wheels are, quality at it's finest...well worth every penny!! I also dealt with Travis at Fikse since we really wanted to push the envelope on the fitment and get the stance just right...I must have mocked up and measured 14 times!! We ended up with these specs:

18x9 w/ 5.625" b.s.
18x11.5 w/ 5.625" b.s.

I've had the tires for a couple months now and should have them mounted on the wheels soon, oh yeah, thanks Scott for the front tires...glad we could help eachother out!!

245/40/18 Pilot Sports
315/30/18 Pilot Sports

Some of you may remember that I had Intro Pentias on the car before but I thought they didn't go well with the racier, street fighter feel the car has taken on in the last year or so...so they were sold to a PT.com member and this package was ordered. Also, I grew fond of the black anodized wheels and felt it was just right for this car. The car will most likely be silver and I already have the black interior...I think it will all work well together and give me the classy yet tuff look I'm going for with this build....

I'll post more pics once I mount the tires and get it back on the ground...man I can hardly wait!!!!

Thanks for the kind words guys...you too Allen!!

I was pretty nervous ordering them since many people don't like the darker wheels, but I'm glad I went with what I thought would look good....I love them!!
