No pics yet, just the info and questions for now...

Good morning forum,

Well it finally happend. I recieved my wheels and tires and had them placed on my whip Saturday. I know you guys are anxious too see some pics, but I really want to get some professional photo shots of the car for you guys. Sometimes if not all the time regular pics never show the true quality of the car and the wheels of choice. So being that I live in NYC, I plan to get a photographer, and go to Times Square around 3 or 4 in the morning when the streets are empty, and take real nice pictures.

Now let me tell you all about the wheels. I have the new 2005 Zenetti Heirs in 20's. In the front I have 20 x 8.5 with a +20mm offset wrapped in 255/30 BF Goodrich G-Force tires. In the rear I have 20 x 10 with a +25mm offset wrapped in 285/30 tires. I am dropped on Tien S-Techs. Now I know the question is, do I have rubbing issues, and the answer is yes. Heres the thing though, I 'm only experiencing a slight rubbing in the rear on the driver side when ever I pass over a dip in the road or bump. I added two passengers in the car and the same thing is happening only on one side. You see I never changed my shocks. I'm still on the factory, so my local perfomance shop told me the shock on the driver rear is busted. I'm getting my fenders rolled today which would illiminate the rubbing completely, but I still need shocks. This is when I ask you all for help. Which shocks should I go with?

These wheels are sick on this machine, but its a different look. It makes the car look bigger and less sporty, but yet still sporty. Trust me, you will see what i'm talking about soon. I'm tempted to post a pic or two, but honestly I could not even if I wanted too, because I dont know how to post a pic. Maybe if someone could inform me how too, you will see the machine this week.

One Love.......

Also, before your roll your fenders, check your camber.
