Blue,

Were the spacers and shims for clearance to avoid rubbing? Or just that nice flush look?

It looks great!

The 10mm shims make the rear match the front or make them even so the rear wasn't all sunk in & for clearance as well due to the +45mm offset I am running. Then the 5mm spacers were for the flush look.

Even with the shims & spacers in the rear it is still a tight fit in the back with that offset. But so far no probs. to speak of.

If I was not clear on anything or if you have any more questions, please post again I would love to help out. :D Just a little short on time at the moment !

Thanks for the compliments everybody I appreciate it ! I would like to post one more pic when it is finally cleaned up !

so you have had good luck with the Kumho ECSTA Supra 712's huh?

I am mostly concerned with tire noise. How did they sound brand new and used? And how do they sound now compared to other tires/stock tires.......

also how do they handle?

They are a little hummy untill they break in then they seem to quiet down allot. Believe it or not my 17 " 712's handled alot better then the 18's but still handle very well IMO.

Like I said earlier I ran through the Carolinas in the middle of a Hurricane with no probs.

I had a set of Yokohama ES100's on my Probe GT a few years ago & I picked up alot of road debris had a puncture & hydroed everywhere ! Not with these & they look great as well as perform great.

Good luck with whatever you select
