they are know as RayS Engineering, Volk Te37's
17" x 8" runnin 245/45/17 rubber
haha i know they are volks, i have the rota knockoffs right now (rota grids). I love the way they look but i dont care for the color too much...so im tossing up getting the grids powdercoated or getting the rays 57pro's i posted earlier. (57 pro, 18x7.5, +48, 225/40/18, 15mm spacers)


can someone tell me how much difference there will be between 17x7.5, 215/45/17 and 18x7.5, 225/40/18 as far as sidewall height/total tire height. i know the 18's have a smaller sidewall but the sidewall is a ratio of the width, so because the width is bigger, the sidewall should be a bit bigger (in comparison to a 215/40 tire).

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
