Baby's got new shoes
It was time for new tires, due to negative camber chewing up the edges.
My G had 20" Volk GT30's, thanks to the original owner. I loved the wheels, but
I'm not a fan of the skinny tire look, and I was tired of worrying about destroying
the Volks on curbs and potholes.
So, I decided to go back to a 19" wheel and settled on Concept One RS8's.
8.5" +35 offset in front and 10.5" +45 offset in back. The fronts required a 7mm spacer to clear the big brakes.
Tires are Falken FK452's.

**new SPC upper A arms in front, and new toe bolts in the rear to fix the camber issues. Already had adjustable camber arms in rear.
BTW.... I sold the Volks locally and it more than paid for the tires and rims! I love Craigslist!
