Looking good, any thoughts on lowering or maybe going with a taller tire?

Thanks, I got a lot of looks on our sunday night cruise. Luckily the gf wasn't around because it was mostly females :D

lowering in this city, not a chance. Plus i live on half a mile of gravel road. when i wear these tires out, ya I'll go for something a little bit taller, but for now I'm fine.

Beautiful. Easily one of the best looking SE's I've seen. Just can't beat black on black.

Whoa, those wheels set that car off amazingly well. But I've got to say as well, the gap from the tire to fender isn't that appealing to me either.

Love the night shots! Great Job :thumbup:

Are you taking the corners that hard, or do you apply the tire shine to only part of the tire?

I want those wheels! They look awesome on a black Bonneville. Exhaust looks great too. Someone needs to get those wheels and put them on a black SSEi or GXP because that would just look amazing. One of the best looking SE's I have ever seen for sure, though it looks like it should be lowered down a bit.

The tire shine is on the flat edge of the tire where all the writing is. Any higher and i'll be on the side of the tread
