Default Post pictures of your tC with aftermarket Rims/Tires here!

As requested this is the spot to post your tC's with new rims and tire.

NEW RULES

If you are posting pictures, post specs as well or the pictures will be deleted.

No one is learning from pics if there are no specs to go with them. Here is an example of stats that should be listed.

Rim Brand: Enkei
Rim Style: RPF1
Sizing:18x9.5 +38
Camber: F:-1 R:-1
Tire Size: 275/40/18
Tire Brand: Nitto
Tire Style: NT05

Also, if you are running spacers, mention it, as that will affect the offset.

Here is the blank "layout" if you want to copy and paste it

Rim Brand:
Rim Style:
Sizing:
Camber: F: R:
Tire Size:

I've been away on business for the past week.. my girlfriend called me to let me know the Ro_Ja formula 5's came in and Perelli PZero Nero tires.. Can't wait to get back home and see them. I'll post pictures here (hopefully she'll e-mail me pictures before I get back)

She's been trying to get the tires mounted on the rims all day.. everywhere she's gone has refused to do it; they're afraid of scratching the polished lip. She took a crappy pic of the wheels without the tires on yet here:

Are those deep dish rims? I would rather have deep dish rims on the tC then any other rims.

I'm still away on business, so I haven't seen them in person. I talked to my roomate, and he says the lip is about an inch deep. They're two piece forged 18x7" wheels, with a 42mm offset. I've read that they weigh 20 lbs a piece, but I wont know for sure until I weigh them myself. I got the rims from NorthEast Auto Design.. It's one of the only real tuner shops in Maine.

I paid 700 for the tires from the tirerack.

I'll have to wait until I get home to see if the factory lug nuts will fit.

EDIT: here is a picture of how deep the lip is:

They're not real deep, I'd say about 3/4 an inch.

I love the kit, springs, & 18's on that car!!! Oh man... if the box ever got wrecked... I'd have a hard time passing that up!
