Thanks Everyone - I'm just wondering how it's going to do in the snow this winter. Nick - did you have any problems up there when you had them on?

Those rims look like the wrong offset by quite abit. They're tucked WAY in the fender well.

Thanks everyone and Quote, originally posted by savedbyzero »Those rims look like the wrong offset by quite abit. They're tucked WAY in the fender well.Yes the offset is not exactly right, but it is close. the problem with the whole thing is that they are a 17 in rim with a 45 series tire. once I wear through them this year, I'm going to bump back up to the Stock Srt BFG Tires which is a 50 series sidewall. Then it should look better. And it was WAAYYY to low. There was no way with the S-Techs then another inch or so with the Tires, it was way to low for the winter, I swapped back to my stockers with Fusions HRI's and it was pretty good over the winter. The HRI's are a bit different in wet and snow then the stock Goodyear Eagles but at least this past winter I didn't wreck this one like I did to the other vibe in 2004. Anyway - I'm hopefully going to get a couple of pics of the Vibe with the stockers on it. I really like the look and I only scrape stuff sometimes instead of all the time.

When you put the SRT wheels backon I would suggest getting some spacers for the rear wheels at least, that would look a lot better IMO.
