    Default New Wheels and Tires on the way

    I just ordered some new wheels and tires which should be delivered mid-week. Wheels are Drag DR-53 all black. Tires are Michelin AS3's 255/40/19 with a 35 offset. I don't believe I'll have any fit issues but can anyone confirm? The company I ordered from does not believe there will be any problems.

    Received the package today. Wheels fit perfectly. Took some phone pics although it looks better in person. Will try to get better pics after I wash the car and use my DSLR in the proper light.

    Next project will be suspension to drop the car slightly and ordering black lug nuts.

    The stock 18" wheels with 245/45/18 snows weigh 51 lbs. The 19" Drag wheels with 255/40/19 weigh 52.6 lbs.

    Them are the tires I think I'll get next.
    They have good reviews.
    Let us know what you think of them after you get them good and run in.

    The rears look great but the fronts seem to stick out a little. may just be camera perspective though. I like 'em.
    Rest in Peace Charlie!

    It's probably the camera angle regarding the fronts as they are about 1/8-1/4" inside from the top of the fender.
