Default Installed the Champions...

It was a good spring day out here on the island and I took the opportunity to put on my new summer shoes (19" Champion RG5 + Toyo T1R's). I also installed 7mm H&R spacers in the rear to give it a better look (IMO).

BTW, I'm running 235/35/19 in the fronts and 315/25/19 in the rear. Pics below:

damned they look good !

In fact I also installed some on my car recently but they are the rg5B, with the little (fake) screws around.

NO PICS .... WHAT IS THAT NEW BULLSH**T about the maximum number of attachments ??? we take the time to add pics and in other words, help them make money and they stop us... That is ridiculous ! why not a limit of words...

Thanks for the comments folks!

@Ivangene - Ed, I wouldn't have this car without your help! I still owe you lunch and beers and will do so when I'm in Seattle again!

@Ivygreen - You'd be surprised at how inexpensive a set of (slightly used) Champions can be!
