Talking Clavius's baby got a new pair of shoes

So after many months of having these stored in a basement I finaly got fed up plus had alot of extra cash laying around and decided to slap these babies on.








I feel sorry for any 56k users right now lol.

Thanks to Chism for selling me these

hopefully this picture comes out better got sick of those crap photo's. So embarassed lol.. still unsure what went wrong but whateva.

They are Mastercraft Avenger ZHP 245/40. I was looking for Kumbo's but they would of taken a week to get there. The place had nothing for that tire size save for these plus they were on clearance. The guy said they are made by Cooper, if they are great or not I'll admit I dont know, I'm a A/T and still NA plus I dont do all that much crazy *** driving so "decent" tires are all I need atm. Now if I were to go Turbo or S/C yes I'd be upgrading to something way better.

So what do you say Kimmi.. take some photo's with my baby at Rotorfest hehe..
I'd offer the same but I look horrible in a two piece

Oh and I sooo needed a alignment. My Front wheels Toe was a bit off.
Before
Left Front Toe: .27degree's
Right Front Toe: -.13 degree's

After
Left Front Toe: .09 degree's
Right Front Toe: .08 degree's

The Steer Ahead before was .20 degree's
Streer Ahead after is now .01 degree's

Some of this is slightly over my head, sometimes I understand it sometimes I can't but when I seen the print out I almost gasped.

I'm glad you finally got the wheels installed. Your car looks much better without those 17's.

They where 16's

And yes they were the ones I got back in Feburary and Benny I've been meaning to but I keep on forgetting about doing 'em. But I may just suck it up now since the rim expose's the rotor a bit more than the 16's did.

Its still scratched. My baby still has that horrible horrible scar on her face. Its next on my list of things to fix on my baby. I've had the rims longer than the scratch so it came first.

And the 16's were not that bad lol.. I've had alot of people still check out the car with 'em on. If they were not so curb rashed up (thank you previous owner!!!) I'd attempt to sell them on the 3 boards but since they are I'm keeping them for the winter beaters.
