mounted the JCW's today... its raining right now (summer in FL) so pics up tomorrow... i will say that the drive is MUCH better on NON- Run-Flats.... im waiting on longer lug bolts to install the front spacers. the rears look flush with 15mm. the bolts come in monday....

only complaint about the Yoko's is the aggressive sidewall. you'll see from the pics.


OH, and BTW..... ORDER CENTER CAPS IF YOU ORDER THE WHEELS!!!!!

FAWK! yeah you guessed it. I didnt.
