Thanks for all the kind compliments everyone

Specs are 19x9 +29 on 225/35/19 up front, and 19x10 +24 on 245/35/19 in the rear. It took a little bit of shaving to do in the rear to prevent rubbing. I had to do a minor fender roll up front to reduce rubbing the metal when turning up and down driveways. I might have to fender roll in the front a little more to go lower, but I don't like the look of flared fenders. Any suggestions?

He's right! HKS Hi-Power... I added silencers to reduce noise heard inside the cabin.

And I agree, much better in daylight than at night. I DO know what you mean
