Not bad They just dont seem to match with the Graphite Grey for some reason.

And its still only March...Still the possibility of more snow, so be careful out there bro By the way what tires are those?

With this recent warm spell I've been very tempted to put my stock Dunlops back on, and save the Blizzak's from further wear. But then it snowed again yesterday with lotsa icey patches around. So I think best just to sacrifice some wear on the tires, for the sake of protecting the car from any big damage

What size are they? i got some 17''s low pros coming.. i dont want there to be to much of a gap between the tire and wheel well.. i got a all black so the rims are most likely goin to be powder coated..

Nice tho, i like em

they are 18's

the tires are Kuhmo's Ku13's

Got them at CMS (honestly not impressed, they screwed up my TPMS so I have to get it fixed now)

I live about about 10 minutes from downtown and a 3 minute walk from the C-Train so if it snows then I just train it downtown.

and yes the car is getting dropped once my spring kit form Works comes!


and thanks for the comments, but honestly I could care less if EVERYONE hated them, I love it. I think the pictures dont do it justice anyways, it looks weird I agree. The whole idea is for a dark car. Black Calipers are being done, along with my DVD deck this weekend.

Snow cleared in calgary and the 14 day trend on weather network says we dont get snow till next weekend... and even then it's only gonna be borderline 0C so it'll be gone soon after!
