Just got my 18's put on a couple of days ago, they look bad ass. The tire size i put on them is 215/35/18, got the cheap Kumho's from Tirerack as nobody had any in that size in stock except for Pepboys who wanted $140 each for some Hankooks. Pics to come later today.

I hope you have a great alignment. As you will be replacing those in a couple months. Kumo = shittiest low pro tires you can buy. Should have waited and saved your money. You WILL regret this in the long run I bet. Been there, done that.

Not when you have uneven wear. Those tires are hard as hell. And wear down extremly fast. I went through a set in like 3 months. They show any signs of uneven wear the warrenty is dismissed. Those tires suck. I used to sell tires so I def know. And I had them. No bueno.

Just wondering which Kumho's we are talking about here. I have a set of SPT's on my SRT-4 wheels and I couldn't be happier. The ASX's on my snowflakes for winter are nothing to write home about, but are good for winter driving so far. And for the performance I have gotten so far with both compared to the price I paid, I have to recommend them highly.

Ok, heres what happened:

I just got out of the car wash, after buying batteries for my camera when my friend called and said that he was in a wreck. Here is a quick pic of that:

Of course it was after dark when I finally got to take a pic of my car, so here is the only decent one I have so far, I'm gonna take more tomorrow during the day:

I knew that was you, I've seen pics of your car on here before, your car is awesome. I saw you on 1960 going toward Humble and then north on the 59 feeder, it was like 2 days after I got my rims on, and the day after the accident my friend had. I was going to Cleveland with my friend to pick up his tax return. I know I've gotta lower my car, I bought those cheap ass yellow springs from tirerack a few months back when they were on sale, I just need to buy new struts and I'll get them on. I also have the lip kit I need to get put on, but I am going to have that done when I get my car re-painted (the skirts are silver). I live in Greengate, near Cypresswood and Treachwig, right down the road from 1960.

EDIT: I'll post up some pics after the crappy weather we are having, my camera is ghetto fab, and doesn't work well in the dark.
