(somebody just called me saying they think they saw my old FX driving, pin striping and everything, so it reminded my of the thread!)

update:

Just ordered the tires for the GTR wheels....

Yokohama Parada Spec-X 295/45/20 rears 265/50/20 fronts

I have the same tires on my current 20's so why not get the same ones if I like them?

Also, I am still deciding what color to go with for the GTR wheels. I was thinking a dark dark dark dark near-black gunmetal: black at some angles, greyish at others
or a metallic black that turns gunmetalish in the direct sunlight....
I've been searching the web for car colors that are close to what I am aiming for, but it will probably come down to a custom color, or one chosen out of a paint brochure that John (turbocad) will provide for me (he is painting the wheels)

anybody know of a place online I can browse through paint colors?

won't the "AWD" light flash cause of the different size tires? i just did my wheels and my sizes are rear 275/45/r20 and the fronts are 245/45/r20 my light flashes everytime i get on the highway.

Your tires have a 3.7% difference in diameter. That is why you get those flashes from the AWD. The correct rear tire size is 275/40R20 to match the fronts.
 
quick question... im going to change my front tires today,what size should I use so that the awd light wont flash? I want to go with a thicker tire in the front. I don't want to have a big gap in it since I lowered the car and there's a huge gap with the front tires I have on now. THANKS in advance!!
 
way back wednesday....
