test fitting AME Shallen AX's

i was finally able to pick up my rims yesterday. and here they are. well at least the rears at that. today i went to my work (goodyear) and bought 2-245/35/19 dunlops decent stretch. called all over the island to the other goodyears lookng for 2-225/35/19 and nothing. goodyears warehouse isnt open on the weekends so i have to wait until monday. but here the rear. rolled the lip a bit with a bat so it wouldnt eat up at the tire. my girlfriend bought me that fender lip rolling tool, so i have to wait for her to get back from her trip to roll the lip flat, and pull a little bit.

sorry for the crappy phone camera.

specs-
19x9 +30 dunlop 225/35/19
19x10 +25 dunlop 245/35/19

Funny, thats 20mm higher offset than the DH's you test fitted for your friend, but these wheels still sit perfectly flush... looks awesome btw, you should be happy with that!

oh maybe that's why the car looks really low...i was tempted to get those springs when i had my ls400, but it didnt look like it would drop it low enough, and i felt like i would have just wasted the money. looks pretty good on your car though!

on a ucf1x with a super low disk no, you'd probably need a 5mm spacer. low disk fits perfect...
