So the bad luck has struck again. I woke up Saturday morning to find my car missing its wheels. Thief's jacked my car up, stole my rims and lug nuts, then the bricks they brought with them didn't make it under the car so when the care slammed on the ground my new spoon bumper and fenders were destroyed and so were my new downforce side diffusers. FML!

That is the same size tires I run on almost the same size and offset wheels (9 +35F, 9.5 +30R). You will have plenty of traction.

Thanks guys. I appreciate allthe kind words and support. Ill be sure to post pics of her laying on the ground soon.

I'm looking at getting a set of Rotas g force in black. 18x9+25 and 18x9.5+30 now. Think it will add a bit of a better look.

Ill update with what my insurance adjuster says soon. On Friday he said I'm around $5000 in damage and theft so he needed more time to work with it.

Small update. No insurance settlement yet. The adjuster said I was around $6000 in damage and theft.

To replace the rotas I found a set of Wedssport sa55m's. 19x9.5+15 and 19x10.5+15.

I'm going to fix all the body work myself, once again and make it wider than it is now.

I have also come across a comptech Supercharger on here that should be mine soon.

That's all for now

Check these out. A no brainer really if you're going to invest in some nice wheels.
