New 20's

Here are my Ace Executive 20" 8.5 with 40 offset. They are wrapped in 245 35 Conti Extreme Contact DWS.

The car is dropped with the Eibach Springs.

I'm really happy with the Tire size, Drop, Offest combo.

Let me know what you think.

I got them from Discount Tire. Here is a link to the Ace website. http://www.acealloywheel.com/wheel-m...ail_13936.html

Also if anyone can attach one of my pics to the thread I would appreciate it. I could not figure out how to do it.

Excellent, a little too pretty for my taste, but clean. Great drop, perfect. Great tint and overlays. Now if you paint that sliver tuna strip in the back, it would be perfect. I'd pain the rest of the beak too.

Thanks everyone for the comments!

The taillights were actually painted with a really thined out black candy on the outsidde. Then clear coated. I wanted to go light to pick up the silver in the lights to play off the silver piece on the trunk. I actually like the silver piece on the trunk. I had the same thought on the front. I like the silver surround of the grill and it picks up the silver in the head lights. I really like contrast. Painting the entire grill and the back piece looses that. However I really like the complete black out on the black.

Tiggaman- I dont like the muds either, but kind of need them in Colorado. Probably will do a kit, but I dont really like the stick on kits. I like full replacments. Will see.

Full Audio coming next. Going to make a custom dash kit for a double din dvd navi. Thats my specialty. I'm a Regional Manager for a 50 store Car Audio Chain. I've only had the car for three weeks so i gotta slow it down a bit. LOL!

I think the splash guards are on point, "kit'n" the car would make it look too custom and give it a "ricey" look. IMO, all these skirts and flares just say, why didn't I get another car? I even like the side door moldings to break up the large doors.

The wheels are borderline "bling" for my tastes, more or less I prefer to see the lugs and am not a fan of the tapered back multi-spoke look...but this is just my

However your TL sits perfect...nice job...

Awesome Rob. I really like the way it looks. Pictures don't do it justice in my opinion.

I like your wheel choice, I had the tail lights tinted red, instead.
