Default Santa came early for this good little boy :D *Black racing/Yokohoma*

Santa is my new best friend

-16x7" Black Racing Pro n1's in Bronze
-Yokohoma Parada Spec 2's 205/45/16


UPDATE: 12/22/04!
Rims mounted, Car raised.

Note: I mounted rims on, and immediately i noticed i had to raise my car up to avoid rubbing. So, i did raise about an inch... took it for a test drive, still rubbed
I'm alittle sad right now cus i dont want them to rub like they are on turns and what not... i guess next step is to roll the fenders
--> i love the look of the rims/tires, but i dont like the fact my car has to be so high and the rub so much.
A tire with 45 offset and 16x7 specs rubs like woah. even with my koni yellow w/ gc's set on stiff. i need a solution fast. i want my car low again...

other then that, i love them tires are great!!!! i can feel traction diff 100%















Update: mounted tires!
waiting to balance and raise ground controls alittle bit.




























x-mas is teh win!

Those wheels look good, but they're heavy as hell. Like 16 or 17lbs. or something.
