Front wheel closeup (big pic)

[wuzzzer]

While borrowing my co-worker's digital camera for the Minneapolis Auto Show, I decided to take a pic of my front wheel/tire with my Bridgestone Blizzaks on. They're 215/60/16 - 1/2" taller than stock 225/55/16.

Compare my wheel well gap to a Gen III without Roush springs: (Pic is of MHolhut's car)

Ya know, there's something to be said about digital cameras!! With a regular 35mm, you wouldn't get such a clean close up of anything!

Out of curiosity, Why the wheel? Not that it's an ugly wheel, there ain't no better lookin' wheel than a SHO wheel!!

Hey Mark, Ive seen that wheel/tire combo somewhere....oh yeah..my car

Anyway, I am running 205/50/r16's on my wheels....yes 205's (trying to get 215's on there..) but anyway with the 50's i can get 2 fingers b/t the top of the tire and the fender, about 3/4 - 1" of wheel gap STILL present after the springs...

I second NJShofear..nice brakes thumbs_u

See my first above, edited. It was a pic to show how small the wheel well gap was after the Roush springs.
Man, do I have to spell everything out for you guys?? j/k thumbs_u

205/50/16? Did you find a good deal on oddball size tires or what?
According to my tire size calculator, those are about 1.6" shorter than a stock 225/55/16 tire. Are those Blizzaks?

How'd you get the neat SHO emblem in the rubber stripping?

And my car is there as a demonstration of what? What 50 series tires look like on the SHO? OK wink

I bought a set of Gen 2 wheel center cap decals from a guy on eBay. I believe his user ID is proper-tees. I like how they look on there. Very subtle. I like them better than the 'SHO' letters some people put on their doors that are from the back of the car.
