New Shoes Finally

I bought the 16x8 +35 Advan RG's from tsunami0ne today. Pretty nice wheel that's gonna let me put some much larger tires for autox'ing. Not a fan of the gold though.... The 205 Michelin don't cut it for my lead foot . When I drove to his place my transmission is making very loud screeching noises now so I got to park it for awhile until i get a replacement tranny (~193k miles) . Here are the current mods and pic's.

16x8 offset +35 Advan RG Wheels

you're car looks nice as is, just drop it a bit more (or get some bigger tires) and it'll look sweet! your wheels also look pretty flush for +35, are they +35 all around?

Silvia front end is at the end of the long list I have and power I'm still thinking which way to go. Those rubber things on the fenders, how do u remove them carefully?

The wheels are +35 all around. Looks pretty flush (well to me at least) up front and the rear can get kicked out a bit more. I don't think I'll go bigger tires, I think its the OEM diameter. Lowering is possible, but it don't look like a monster truck so I'm happy.

BRB gonna go back outside to look the wheels again hahah.

very nice rims, dont listen to these guys. just because it doesnt touch the fender or fill it out completely, doesnt mean its not a good choice.
