[quote=Daggie]That's how tires are supposed to sit on a wheel

I've found out that US and EU have really different standards on that matter. However I have to say, that the car is not build for track or anything. The car is only used for Sunday driving and carshows. I've talked this over with Vince from iForged. The standards are just different, I'm not saying either one is better. In EU (well Belgium for that matter) we prefer a wider wheel, with a stretched tire. We think you guys put way to much tire on your wheels, which makes the complete package look "boring".




So this looks boring?

habitat :I was only talking about tire-wheel. I'm not referring to the car in general. Those cars look amazing, we hardly have any showcars like that in Belgium. But if anyone over here would make a car like that, it would have smaller tires ... As example:


11x19 with 275/30/19. Just like my tires (These are Asanti wheels)

I ordered a set of ForgeLine VR3P's from http://www.wheel1.com in Dayton, OH. Mine will come with powder coated anthracite centers.
