      New wheels

      I'm in the process of doing a tranny swap and decided to throw my new wheels on. Dropped the car down to bolt the headers up and decided to roll it out for a few quick photos. The car is filthy and the wheels have my grubby hand prints all over them but I think it still looks good. Wheels are 17x8's Bullitts w/ 4.50 BS on 235/45 Hanooks. I think I need to lower the rear about another inch. Already have reverse eyes on it.

      What do ya'll think?

      I think the stance looks killer as is, but if you were to lower the rear a tad bit more, it would look perfect. The new wheels look great.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      I'd leave it as is... too much lower and it might become a hassle on the street. And don't forget, those leafs will settle and sag over time.

      I like that! Speaking of the Bullitts, I need to find a set of cheap gray Bullitt wheels to put on my Jeep.
