New wheels/tires

[drdave69]

Just installed new GNX style wheels that I bought from Kirbans and I love them. While I had the car on jack stands I also replaced the original shocks with Bilsteins. The ride quality is great and the new wheels really look good. I will say this, those rear shocks are a PITA to replace.

I see you are in PCB. I spend quite a bit of time there myself and will be there Oct. 9 - 11.

hello dave69; I've had those wheels for some time and your going to love cleaning them. But I like them.
What tires did you go with?
I need some new ones and I'am going to wait till spring to get them as the car does not see winter.
245-50-16 is the size I went with.

Tires are Kumho and the same size you mentioned (also recommended by Kirbans). Hopefully cleaning will not be too tough.
