Hey Monkey, sweet ride. Looks just like mine except you have better rims! Thats my question here. I currently have 17" rims non staggered with 225/50/17 tires on all 4.

Where's the best place to buy 166 rims at and what kind of tires do I need? They're the same as yours, 19" rims, 8.5 in the front and I think 9.5 in the rear.

Anyone help!!!!!!

Call Joe at trinity he will set you up................I went nineteen staggered as you said with Falken tires , only thing you have to do is by stick on roundls for the centre caps as the factory ones dont fit.
Good Luck and post pics when you get your wheels
Cheers

Thanks everyone for your compliments................not bad for an 04 , when I got it it looked s**t to be honest.......... I did a claybar and then several wax applications to get it like that.................. until a vulture flys over and craps on it
