Snapped a couple of pics...

Since I don't think I've ever posted pics of the car...







Not scenic, and quite dirty.

Re: Snapped a couple of pics...

I don't think I've ever seen a full boyd pic of the car in one piece. Looks great.

What size are the tires/wheels?

Re: Snapped a couple of pics...

The bay is embarrassing. Whomever painted it way back when did a SHIT job and there's peeling galore. No tucked wiring, no trick hoses, just a snail and some engine, really.

First time I have ever seen it. Looks good. Not a huge fan of the wheels, but better than stock.
Its your DD right?

DD/toy...double duty.

I love my old-school Volks. They fit the era the 1g was made in, IMO.

Not really a fan of that style rim but they go good with the car.

Re: Snapped a couple of pics...

Thanks man. It looks a bit different with the fresh 245s that went on. Were my memory card cooperating, I could post the pics I snapped this AM.

Re: Snapped a couple of pics...

That's a lot of rubber. Very aggresive looking. Any rub in the front?

Re: Snapped a couple of pics...

There's a tiny bit at full lock. Discovered this backing into the spot this AM. Nothing noted in driving.

I can honestly say that as a DD, it has never felt this good before. Coilovers + tires + alignment = awesome feel

Re: Snapped a couple of pics...

It rubs. Big highway dips are NOT cool. 80mph + bridge transition/dip = BRRRRRRRRRP and a rubber smell.

She's going up a half inch at least.
