Well I finally got around to cleaning the car up and snapping some pictures with the new wheels and springs. (I have to update my website next). Here's a couple shots. I went about as old school as you can get. 15's with BFG's and stock spring height. Its 295/50R15's in the back and 235/60R15's in the front. I had to use some spacers in the rear to keep from hitting the shock mount and I also had to roll the lip. No issues now. I'm real happy so far with the chrome centers. I was concerned that the chrome and aluminum would not look right together but I think it looks really good as the chrome portion looks just like very highly polished aluminum. Well see how the chrome holds up over time.

Clean that aluminum and seal it with zoop or something. It will be the first to lose its shine.

That looks great. Are those 15 X 10's in the back? What is the backspacing?
