Car looks boss!

I tried skinnies on the street before and my impression was that they get a little squirrely at higher speeds. Rear got loose on me trying to slow down a bit....

Works CR01 15.8 +20 offset.

Ran Mickey Thompson 225/50/15 (my favorite look)
& Ran M&H Race Masters 235/60/15 'Street & Strip' (my favorite for traction)

After seeing so many black cars on this thread with the 3 piece, I have decided to paint my car black too.

I always thought to myself that black cars have a much more subtle look, in which a 3 piece(aggressive) + a black (subtle) car is perfect.
