    Well as some of you might now I have been trying to get in touch with Bismarck at USW for months now...well Ralph(Mol) met up with him at SEMA and after some talking got his wheels and me hooked up with him for mine...I fell in love with the style Mark(Freebird) had on his 300srt. I went a bit different though. When I spoke with Bismarck he wasnt sure it would look good but I had just recently seen Jon(Fat Chance) with his new setup and since what I wanted was similar I was going to chance it...They are 22x9.5 with 4 inch lip up front and 22x10.5 with 4.5 in the rear. I am running the Vredesteins at 265/35 and 295/30. Let me know what you all think...

    I dont have a pic atm of the rear that shows it well but they dont stick out at all. I had them moved in 1/8 of an inch extra to make sure since im sitting as low in the rear as the kwv2s will let me :) Ill try to get a good pic for you though.

    John. Wow. That's all I can say.

    As for John's ride height, it makes Ricks look stock!

    thats why i suggested jason go with the kw's vs. the hi flows........ i know he is short, but man, lets not try and make up the verticle challenges by running the charger that high........

    So far they are very similar. For a true comparison i would like to put my old ones on your car and have you drive them for a bit...before i sell them. That would be a great test!

    john - you might end up losing 25% on the price due to wear/abuse.......
