DUDE! Bad A$$ ride! I love the look with the 22's.

Keep them staggered, the shop knows what they are talking about!
 












Staggered wheels = Staggered Tires

Go with 285 in the back! :)
 






New rear wheels and 285/40 tires done.
Still sticks out a little but matches up with the front like I was thinking.
The sidewall isn't stretched like the 265 was and the rim lip isn't sticking past the tire like it was with the 265.
I am liking it much more!

Lastly, I can't say enough good things about the Nitto 420S tires.
Quiet, smooth ride and nice grip! Longevity? Well it took 6 years for me to reach 30k on the Pirellis so...
 












I've never been a fan of the "stretched" look so I'm glad you went to 285s. Looking great! Now go have your front headlights retro-fitted to be HID with projectors. :)

Thanks! And thanks for all your help!
I still think it would of been a bit better looking with a front offset of 25 compared to the current 15 and 40 in the rear instead of the final result of 35.
The shop was very concerned over going any further! And we are only talking 10 and 5 mm so not the end of the world.

So who is doing the HID's? Cost?

That is something I would be interested in but first and next up is the cam phaser repair, cams and CAI install.
I also need a tune written for a SCT ITSX tuner pulling it all together.
The wish list goes on and on...
