wheels and tyres finally meet

Post by lewd lude lover » Wed Mar 14, 2012 5:17 pm

iv had the wheels for 4 years, they needed a refurb for 3 of those. iv had the tyres since last summer.

finaly i got the two together :idea:

given a clean of all the gunk from fitting, painted the wheel weights black, put a little coachline stripe on the outside rim and put in the centercaps. happy camper.


im chuffed with how fat the tyres look on the wheels. they have a definate edge about them. 8-)

so if you wondered how 215 45 17 AD08 looks on a J7.5 then here you go ;)

Pull your finger out your bum, fit them on the car and drive around in dry and wetness and review them for me.
I need to know if i want 225/45/16 rainsport 2 or 215/45/16 AD08s on my 16x7s.

They look great.
