Enough with the teasers James.

Just show us what they are, you don't need to tell us the specs just yet.

wait... do you daily yours shane?

I'm pretty sure if it sticks out 3.5 - 4 inches hes gonna need some sort of a widebody.
i dont commute my car 90 miles everyday like i did before. i do drive my car around whenever i get the chance to. i know i cant get may good mileage out of my tires... so i wont try. and yes the v8 inside the car is a waste now.. but I STILL LOVE IT... hahahahah..

by the way your fitment looks sweet!! very clean!!
is your car daily driven?

james has one too many cars to drive it daily. haha.. you're nuts james!!

It was done using all stock components. I dont have a jack at my house, but next time my car is raised up I'll be sure and snap a photo for you.
If anything, get it done at Platinum, that way you know the "secret" haha.
plus, their prices are very reasonable
I'm sure they can do the amount of camber necessary for you to fit those bad boys on your car
