Re: 2005 Smrt CDI

I got the tires from Tire Trends in Vancouver, well priced too!

Well still waiting for my bolts and such but since I am getting free shipping this time I added a new Brabus front grill to the order.

Just like this grill but in black

Re: 2005 Smrt CDI

Well I am waiting for my caps and bolts etc, but since I am heading away on thursday I probably wont get the wheels on till I get back. Therefore I thought I would at least put up a few pics of the new goodies.

First of is the tires, 195-40-16 Toyo T1Rs, I went with non staggered tires to save troubles and cost as the other sizes are not so common here and this setup works just fine.



Here is the OEM front vs the new front, a bit of a difference



The back is not so extreme but still adding a little width.



Now for the wheels, Smart OEM Titanium Spikelines or Crossblade wheels. Made in Germany by Borbet I found out too.



The fronts are 16x6.5 and the rears are 16x7





They are not that different in width but they do look very different because the front has an offset of ET24 and the rear is a ET-20 (on the left)

not that it is an excuse, but the couriers are overwhelmed with greyhound being on strike.

Re: 2005 Smrt CDI

The fourth wheels status is still unsure though
