Here's a couple of before and after shots that show how much of a difference a set of wheels and tires can make on a car. Three owner California car...removed the side models and emblems and lowered it. Running 19/20 combo in our Matrix style.

Really looks good. It is amazing how much cleaner it looks just taking off the side molding and fender emblem. Nice job.

Thanks for the compliments guys. Wheels are 19x8 up front and and 20x10 out back. Tires are 235/35/19 on the front and 285/30/20 on the back. Car was lowered by simply cutting the coils. It's actually a 6 cylinder car!

Ride wasn't too bad actually. Car has now been upgraded to 4 wheel disc brakes, dropped spindles, and new springs.

really nice. How hard was it to get the side moldings off?

Unfortunately the side moldings were pop riveted on so it took some paint work to have them removed.
