sorry< im seein things or mixing u up with someone else lol. All that engine bay work on your car trust me< you couldve easily been boosted so shouldn't be a dream.

Yea the way your car sits, You can run lower profile. I wish 225/40 profile didn't set off my AWD, when I cruise on the highway for sometime, My AWD starts blinkin and turns off. Runs RWD, cause stretched 225/40 profile triggers it...

Before this I ran g37 rims, with 225/45 front 245/40 rear and they were fine.

ANYONE WITH AWD, lower or stretched sidewall to smaller size then rear sidewalls triggers the AWD sensors... BAD move. can burn out the awd sensor and costs alot. I'm either selling the rims or gettin new tires. ugh never endsDOMO

I haven't spent that kind of money on my engine bay, but include everything else I've done to the car and yeah I could have been boosted, but stock everywhere else.

Umm 225 should not be stretched on a 19x8 wheel. I can see it being stretched on a 19x8.5 or even 9. Try running a 255 in the rear since 225/40 and 255/35 are really close to diameter.

225 is a little stretched but not much on a 8". That's the oem size for the Ray's 19's.

Sick Tim, thats a dope shot. How fast were you driving the car when this rig shot was taken? What time of day?

I need to take a new one of my ride.

That shot was taken at ~8:00 at night in almost pitch dark last June. I was not driving at all, I was in the car holding the wheel tight so it didn't turn, Mike set a long exposure (I don't know how long) and the timer and then went to the back of the car and pushed it ~20-30 feet.

It's amazing that it looks so much like daylight given there was pretty much no light.

I figured it was taken at night, that allows for long exposures. If you took that shot during the day you'd have to use an ND filter to get a longer exposure. I'll look at the exif data when I get home to see how long of an exposure he used. Again, sick shot!

Depending on how he saved the file I'll be able to see a ton of information about the photo and equipment used.

I usually use exif viewer in firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3905

Do you have any more photos that he took, would love to see them.

That's cool!

I have a few more but they are the raw files and don't look anywhere near as good. Want to clean them up for me?

^I'm not sure if the photog would be cool with me editing his work. If he doesn't mind, sure I'll edit them (not that I'm the best at PP though). Are they Nikon RAW files (.nef)? I haven't tried to edit a raw file that wasn't an .nef, but I assume that I should be able to open them in Photoshop if its not a .nef. I'll PM you my email.
