Pictures With The New Tires & Wheels

So yeah, I finally got them put on today. I'm happy with the appearance, and I really enjoy the ride, I just want that part of my bank account back but otherwise no complaints. Most of these pictures look the same but why not post them all right? Unless you have 56k...

ya outta do a 2/3 so it will make it look like the rear isn't sitting so high. Sometimes that extra inch adds alot.

I'm in Florida but my mom has the insurance on it and she lives in VA so I still run VA plates. Insurance for me is almost 300 a month and it's like 60 a month on her policy. Sounds backwards doesn't it? It is.

They're 255/60 R18. Toyo is one of the only companies to make the size. I had 255/70 R16s on it and I had the speedometer calibrated correctly when I worked at Ford so I didn't want to change sizes. And don't worry the stickers are gone now.

You just gotta stay up way too late online and look endlessly for who is cheapest without gouging you on the shipping.

looks good, but just a thought, don't forget to remove the stickers on the tires.

Looks nice dude. One suggestion get some spacers make them stick out a little farther and it'll have a nice agressive look!

You were a few hours behind Matt, he says he removed them about 6 hours before you posted, lol.
