First pics of 1456's facelift

[InvisiBill]

Just went and picked up my wheels from Lakeshore Wheel & Tire. These are the ROH "Impala" wheels I bought used when a pothole ate my stock fronts (2002?). $135 a wheel and they look great. They're only about an hour from here, and a coworker lives right nearby. I gave him a 6-pack for dropping them off, and I left work early today to pick them up, so "shipping" was pretty cheap.

I had planned to buy tires on the way home, but apparently there aren't any Z-rated 245/50R16's on this side of the state.

More pics to come, hopefully early next week.

They are sure to look sweet on your syclone

What bolt pattern are they? I'm assuming they are 5x4.75 to fit our trucks? If the are 5x5 I know the Impy guys would be all over a deal like that!! They have tried to get ROH to remake those wheels for a while now with no luck. Those would fetch a pretty penny over at impalassforum.com!!

I know Morgan had those wheels on the "duck" too. They do look good!

Yup, stock SyTy bolt pattern and offsets. They were the cheapest option I could find when I bent the stockers. I bought them from a board member and paid almost as much for shipping as I did for the wheels. I really like the wheels - they're simple but nice looking, and not everyone has them.

This is from a couple years ago when Timbo was in MI and got it all cleaned up for me.

"MarlboroTyphoon" had them too. Pic from GLG '01.

The rims look very nice! Any chance it will be together in time for Homecoming?

Haven't registered yet, but I plan to be there.

A few more huge, crappy cameraphone pics today...

You can even see the new Kumho Ecsta ASTs in some of the pics.

It's looking a little more like a Syclone now. Or at least an S-truck.

Almost there...
