Default Got my stock ap2 v1 widen to 17x10.5 with 275/40/17 nt05

All work was done at http://www.ericvaughnmachine.com/
I had the rear wheels bored out so they fit on the front with 255/40/17. It cost me $30 per wheel to bore them out.

I had the front 17x7 widen to 17x10.5. This cost me $250 per wheel. This makes the offset +99.45. I'm using 32mm spacers in the rear making the wheel setup 17x10.5 +67.45 off set. The 17x10.5 now weighs 22.5 pounds each. I'm running nt05 in 275/40/17. As you can see there is quite a stretch on the tire when mounted on the rim. I'm going to get an alinment tomorrow. So far these do not rub on my stock non rolled fenders. The clearence on the inside is pretty close. I'm at 442whp and with the stock rims with 255/40/17 i had traction problems in 1st gear. This should help fix that. I am also on stock shocks and springs. When these tires die i hope to try the kuhmo xs in 295/35/17.

I have done an auto cross and have went drag racing with this setup now and I can say that this mod makes a huge huge difference in terms of traction and grip in both straight line drag racing and in auto cross.

I never loose traction in first gear anymore when the boost come on! This is with a 442whp pump gas tune.

I'm all go and no show. My car is driven everyday and dragged and auto crossed often. The car sees 15,000+ miles a year

I love my engine bay. Nothing is relocated and everything is fucnctional.

Thanks.
It's a custom support that I made to support the turbo/manifold. I used a sway bar end link I had lying around.
