Got some new (to me) shoes on da Goat! I bought these from Crisisman (local to me here in Seattle) this morning and got some tires today. They are Privat Fahren's. 18 x 8 up front wrapped in 245/40/18 BFG Comp TA Sports and 18 x 9 out back wrapped in 275/35/18 BFG Comp TA Sports. I got some locking Gorilla Lugs on them too. The 275's are HUGE compared to the stock 17's I had on there before. No rubbing out back (drag bags are pumped up) and they look pretty damned good if I do say so myself! Next month the Baer big brake kit goes on, so the front wheels will be filled with 13" rotors to go along with the complete Pedders/Lovell suspension I just got done.

Here are the pictures!

After a little issue I created myself (did not torque lugs on the drivers side and sheared 3 out of 5 studs) it is flawless now! Lowered, stiff, flat handling. Pretty much the best set of mods for the pure driving pleasure of it!

Car looks great Tom. I like those wheels as well. Only thing the car would look much better with a NY tag instead FTW:)

Fenders are NOT rolled or cut. I have stock rear suspension with drag bags. I have them pumped up and there is plenty of clearance. I did some hard launches and had no rubbing.

UGH....

Get 19x9.5 TSW Thruxton's in the rear with Invo 285's

or

Go run out there and just get another set of Ruff 278's....

I need to go big meat in the rear. I have every suspension mod known to man to accomodate for it.

lol, sorry you don't like them, thank God I got the rims I wanted. Good luck with the "big meat" in your rear.

It only looks that high because of the way the alley I was parked in to take the picture is sloped. I'll get some pictures of it on level ground.

Nice wheels, and good job on going with 275's out back.

Yeah please do, because from those pics I'd say you have a huge gap between the back tire and the fender. If you're rear supsension is raised that much then of course you're not getting any rubbing. I do see where the alley slopes, though, so looking forward to pics on decent ground.

Hey Ryan, who really gives a fuck about your two cents? If I told you what I paid for them you would not be saying that. I bought them used from a board member. You are a spammer and a troll. You want to jump in and try and add your bullshit opinion and sell tires and rims when you aren't a sponsor. Fuck you, buddy. Leave the site before they ban you. Wonder why the MODERATORS have been deleting your posts? Fucking asshole, get the fuck out!

OK, dumbass, your fucking screen name could be considered a violation of the advertising rules. You are blatantly advertising a non-sponsor in every single post you make.

As for stroking my ego? lol, yeah, that's it. Me and everyone else who has posted a picture of their car. Speaking of cars, where is yours? What year do you own? Why are you here, Ryan? What interest do you have in the new generation GTO? Selling tires and rims? Fucking spammer.

Just proving you are a spammer. Sponsor the board or go away. No one will take you seriously until you do.

Looks like the only Spamming going on here is you posting 1010tires company info. I'm sure the paid sponsors do not approve, which is why i have not.
