hell yeah man, you now have traction out the yin yang. think about it. you've got rims that are wide enough to offer a 31-3300lb cobra sufficient traction and your car is like 400-600 lbs lighter at least... freaking beautiful.

have fun (:

Lower it, and dont get AGX and springs, cuz you can get D2 coilovers for that, and their SOO awesome for the price

Raise up off these N U Ts.

Those wheels seem to stick out a lot for 8 +30...

haha Good suff brian, glad you went 5 lug :) the cobra wheels look good. I saw a 03 cobra yesterday and am leaning towards a set of those 18x9 for everyday running around :) big cheap and good sizes and offsets :D good job man

definately looks good. you arent leaving the caps in tho, are you? Hey Steeles, have you ever picked up one of those Cobra wheels? So damn heavy, guess it doesnt matter for everyday tho. except gas.

I would remove the cobra center caps, though.

im taking the center caps and just painting them black.....thanks for the compliments everyone, i now have all 4 of em on...
steeles: im glad we went 5 too? i must thank Volk wheel company for that, though, they pissed dad off so much about not having any 4 lugs in stock he said fuck it and found a wrecked s14:)
they sit great to me, im not much on a streched tire but the 225's are a lil rolled in and i like it alot:)
zemus: can you tell me some more info about the D2 coilovers you mentioned.....ill be on AOL tonite while im doing a spanish report so hit me up:)

and now for the pics:)
