I was actually thinking about 245/40 tires, does anyone know if this setup will void the free brake change under the warranty.

M166 are always nice to look but a bitch to clean.

Great look for the summer!

i have seen now that the left front tire rubs a litte when turning full to right......
I guess I won't be trying bigger tires up front after all....

The wheels look great, though.
