Thx - Yeah I've been thinking of at least powdercoating them red. Needs something more behind those big 20's

.

I looked into an upgrade to S brakes but it requires a few other component changes and an S master cylinder. A lot of work.

Thanks for the props Bobby! Saw your ride too- looks sweet. It's going to look hot with the black chrome exhaust tips (yeah I talked to Brian today... lol)

Kkilo- here's some new side shots. sorry about the poor lighting angle.

LOL Yea sorry Bra i'm not taking your recommendation on the polish tips! I'm thinking it will be less maintenance if i went with the black chrome ones. I can't wait to get the pipes too!

Here a pic of my old C2S with 20x12 50mm offset.. When I was trying to find out how much off space I could go with only one person on here believe That 20x11 50mm would work.. That was 2 years ago.

Yeah the straight-on side pic really exaggerates the size of the wheel. in person they look just right. i hate it when wheels look obviously too big for the car. Like some of the stupid jaguar owners here in LA running around with chrome 20's... Can you say "hooptie chuckwagon"... LOL

(No offense to any jaguar owners here with 20's...

Looks really good man. Congrats!

I also have the same setup. I have the 305 rear tires, and the Champion springs installed. Does anyone know for sure if the 7mm spacers is the widest i can go without rubbing in the rear? I would love to get 10mm spacers in there but im not sure if itll rub or not...anyone know?
