New Wheels/Shoes/Feet/Rubber

Hey all,

I purchased new rims about a month ago. However, I haven't had the best weather to take nice shots of my car with them on. Since posts on new rims are slowing down probably due to winter, I have some old pics that I took. More are to come.

The rims are DTM Kreuz 7's Gunmetal from DTM Autohaus in Alhambra. I am using Toyo T1-S. The performance of them is slightly better than the 17" stocks that I had. There was noticeably slower acceleration, but a firmer more sporty ride. The one thing that I love about the DTM rims is that the entire barrel is polished, not just the lip. Thanks to everyone including Raysur350gt, 808350gt, bigsmasher, etc. who helped me with questions I had regarding tire size and fitment. I am taking them off for winter as the potholes in California are pretty bad due to the rains

The specs are:
Front: 19x8 w/ 245/35-19
2.25" Lip
Rear: 19x10 w/ 275/35-19
3" Lip
Below are pics of them:

Beautiful rims Newbie! Excellent choice with DTMs, congraduations and prepare for the constant stares during traffic! Take it easy and drive safe.

- Don't argue with idiots. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.=P-
