New Shoes for the Project

I ordered new shoes for the bird yesterday. Just figured I would share.

Edit; I thought about this more and realized I should disclose more of the plan. The wheels are 18x9 on 5x114.3 with a 30mm offset. I am planning to use P275/40-18's all the way around the car. I will obviously be doing a hub swap. I plan to road race the car and since I needed new wheels this is what I settled on using. These wheels are flow formed since I wasn't willing to pay for actual forged wheels. I realize that they may stick out a little but inside clearance was the bigger concern because of the tires. This isn't a daily driver so the usual concerns don't concern me.

Yeah, it should be pretty cool when it's done. They list those wheels at 17.5lbs a piece but I would be surprised if they are that light really. I guess I'll find out soon.
