I wish I had a set of the 5 stars, but the 6 spokes were hard enough to find(for me) when I upgraded to 16" wheels. Tose with some 295's wrapped around them would look killer.

205's. Do you mean 305's? I thought the dillema was between 285 and 295. Went in between I guess

Looks good, not sure about the painted wheels though. I hope it stays on...

Are you using wheel spacers?

Nope I like the min. blingage of the lugs, the paint should hold up I did it properly . And yes I am using 1" wheel spacers.

Nope no vibration, I got em off ebay for $69 a set. I check em every time I change the wheels and they have yet to loosen.

Looks good. Do you need the spacers? Will they fit without?

I might need them, I initially bought them to clear the 285 Interco SSR's which measured 33.9 X 11.4. And they had a upper A-arm clearance issue. Since I installed them they filled out the wheel wells and made the tires flush with the outside of the fenders, so I left them, I like the way it looks.

so 295's? If so they look great! We have the same combo now, grey 16"s with 295 Nittos.
Now just get Ric or Steve to shave you a-arms and you can ditch the wheel spacers.
Congrats on the new shoes!

Naw I like the stance as it is. I must say these damn things "dare I say it?" ride like street tires, smooth and well mannered. I am unbelievably impressed. I do need to trim some fender and hammer pinch weld. Though funny thing is the driver side is the only side that rubs, guess when the fender and the SSR got in a fight they compromised and the fender moved a little.
