there's a guy (several, actually) who sit up at the dragon and shoot photos for a living.

(yes, i did actually order them instead of just stealing his sample)

i requested that he 'shop that out for me.

just got some new shoes. i traded in the hyperblacks for the flat blacks fno1r 18*8.5. i went with the +38 offset this time and the same drop and camber.

i got the nitto neo gen 245/40/18 to wrap them in. i like these tires though they were hard to balance. they're supposed to wear well even with negative camber, so we'll see. they're real grippy, and the sidewalls feel pretty stiff. they're getting good reviews, but i remain skeptical.

the hyperblacks were pretty, but these look mean. and going from +48 to +38 was definitely the right move. i could have probably gone to +35.

pics soon. wife broke the camera. women.
