Default thanks - but you are the 'real' pioneer. Your exhaust is amazing!

What aspect ratio are you using on your current set of tires? Do you plan to go with the same profile on your 275s?

I have 20x8.5 (28ET) on the front and 20x10 (40ET) on the rear. My drive through the horribly maintained California 405 freeway yesterday helped me realize that I may not have made the best choice on tire size though. They never rubbed once but I should have stayed with a slightly thicker profile like a 245/35 front and a 275/30 rear for a smoother ride.

Have you thought about any of the superchargers for the V8? Of course with the S6 coming out in a couple of months may not need to...

Default Re: Nice wheels! Do they come in smaller sizes?

Understand. 18s are available, not sure about 17s or not. Here's the link.<ul><li><a href="http://www.dpengineering.cc/">DPE Wheels</a></li></ul>
