KG911 and his new 8x16 Fuchs!!!!!! pic's!

soooooooooooooooooo after careful consideration and research kelly pulled the trigger on his 8x15 for the rear and 7/16 in the fronts!........

he HAD 6x16 in the front and 7x16 in the rear.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE!.....

kelly came over to show me his sled,......... i took some pictures and he asked me to post the pictures and show you guys......

feel free to throw kelly your thoughts on his new wheels, i think the look is classic with a nice stance!

Niiiiiiiiiiiiice! 7'S and 8'S make all the difference on the overall look of these cars. By the way I think I've seen PRE-H2O around the Belmont Shore area. 2nd st. perhaps? I noticed it was running 15's. Have fun..

Those look great!! Kelly, I'm sure you're reading this...congrats, man! I didn't realize you were going to pull the trigger so soon on those wheels. You need to scruff up those tires on the track now.

Guys, let's all get together and grab some lunch soon.

Hey Alex. Thanks for the pics. I love these new wheels. I find myself taking a second look when I get out of the car. Scott I agree, we should gather the gang together and grab some lunch soon. Not sure what your schedule is but I am off until the 11th.

i went to lunch with chris last week.... he is doing great.

he had mentioned putting together a "project day" at his place where anyone that has projects to do on their car we can do it as a group..... there are some knowledgable wrenches out there....... i LOVE the idea.....

i guess more on that later but ya, chris is cool.

I'm in Dallas, TX as I type this (12:45 Central time) attending my twice per year training and checking. I'll be home tomorrow morning.

Patrick, I still need to approach my wife about taking her Cayman to Big Willow since my black car is in Paul's shop and the red car's tires are toast. We'll see how she takes the request. If she's cool with it, I'll be there on the 9th.

Kelly, get those CV's fixed!!

Question

Just curious......
Those rears look fairly well out there. Are spacers involved? I recently went to sevens and eights, and though I REALLY like all of them, mine aren't quite filling the wells like that, which is fine with me, but, again, just curious.
Looks just great, BTW!
