Default The Savini's are on!!

After a long and exhausting battle to get my wheels, from the rim shop I was dealing with, I finally got them and they are on! They turned out exactly how I pictured it. I always knew this car was big but it really shows how it swallows 22 inch wheels and a 295 tire out back. I kinda wish i went a size up on the tires but its fine for now. I have some iphone pics but I havent dropped it yet so I dont know if im ready to reveal it to the "Club". I had the datasystems controller for about 2 weeks now but I have Japanese instructions and havent been able to find english instructions yet. Plus I want to give a shout out to HyperMKIV and alsilverbullet. As a person who like to think of them self a lil more original than most, I kinda got inspired by both their wheels.

Nice Wheels! Where in TX are you? As of last weekend, my car is now drop on 22 with 295 rear and 245 front, my rear rub so I had to cut the fender. It was b/c my wheel offset is wrong (5.5" lip).

You should go with 265 30 22 for the rears, that's what I have on mine and it don't rub. Does the wheel rub or the tires?

Wow those are hot. Im loving the brushed face and chrome windows. Are they directional wheels? Does the Driverside set also have that same swooping effect or they go backwards?

Those are some sexy wheels man! Keep up the good work and hit them off with a drop to really set them turn heads.
