Scorpions are mounted!!

Okay, so the shop was slow today and I had them mount up the BFG g-Force T/As on the Verde Scorpion 17s for the wife's RS3.0.

Only have crappy cell phone pics of them so far, but considering the car won't be here for another week or so, that's probably okay.

Here they are!





Not everybody's style, but they will certainly go well with her "theme".

HOORAY!!

Awesome! I am going to price check a couple places on the Scorpion with gold accent tomorrow. If they don't pan out I may take your offer up on the company you purchased from. I should know something tomorrow.

Are those tires 205/40 or 215/45's ? We are going with 215/45 for a little bit more comfort. I am not sure how much a difference it will make.

They look like 18s, but if they're 17s, and are running that stretch, are the tires 205/45-17s?

There you go! Brad is right on the money. The stretch is REALLY mild and they are 205/45ZR17 tires on 17X7.5" rims.

I mentioned in the other thread that we didn't go 18" because the wife wanted a little better ride (it's psycological) and these weren't available in 18X7.5", but rather 18X8" and would've needed both spacing and a custom drilled set of holes since there wasn't a 4X100 pattern option from the manufacturer. That seemed like a lot of trouble for a car that will only see one or two shows a year.

Anyway, again, thanks! Can't wait to have a car for them now!

Oh man, I better write this down in my book and get some Lottery tickets! LOL!

With a drop, those are going to look really good on an RS 3.0.
