yea...im soo glad im out for the summer...although i totaly F*ed up my Math final....hey Bub, i'll give ya a call today maybe and u can see them...as far as the pictures in my WWW go, i havnt posted the new ones yet...theres a car show tomorrow when i will take all my picts and thats when everyone will be able to see the new wheels...so come monday, picts of EVERYTHING should be up...
BTW: the wheels look soo good, although i got a custom color....i had them sandblasted and re-finished to a color i liked better...so if u bought the ADR GT Sports (like mine) ours woudnt look the same...the silver they come with is more dull and plain and darker, kinda like grey compared to my new color. :-)

depends on your tire size.if you overall diameter of the tire is bigger than stock you are going faster than your speedo cause the circumfrence is bigger then stock there for you will be going farther per one rotation
