I was debating that but this is what my buddy recommended. And I trust him since hes an east coast wholesaler for most of the brands out there.

Also the S7 is wider than the S6: the track on the S7 is 1 inch wider than the S6, and assuming that the mirrors are identical between the 2 models, the body is 2 inches wider. The ET35 on the S6 may look as aggressive as ET30 on the A7/S7.

So funny that you say that. My first thought was, "Wow, looks like an unmarked Michigan State Police Dodge Charger."

I have a request for 2 additional photos:

1. A more frontal-side shot so I can see where the rims and tires are relative to the fender
2. A closer shot of the tire and rim so I can see how (not) stretched the 255 tires on a 9" wide rim

Thanks!

You got it... The stretch on the 9" wheel isnt really that bad.
