Yeah I think it was the one in Turbo... I rememeber it had some pretty wide tires, and that stillen kit... Do you know where can I find some info on it, or the article on it. It's not on their website.

sorry i dont' know where u can find pictures.. but tht car looked real nice.. it had konig monsoons i think.. and they siad it was rubbing a bit, so 265 all around would be a good width.. go to some import tuner shop and flip through their stacks of magazines.. and see if u can find it, if so find out if they're nice enough to sell u that issue or give it to you.. other than that i'm not too sure on how you might find a pic of that car.. i think it's not all that special, a few ppl on this forum have the kit. the climax also has it in that color with the kit too.. just ask the right people and you'll get hte pix.. sorry i can't help u out much on this one.

Hey Cwally...whaz up? I have both the Import Tuner and some other magazine in my car that has what you are looking for! I'm here at the store today until 6pm. Yes I know it sucks working on a holiday and all. Call me at the store or just come by. By the way, do you want to go with us to the Palm Springs meet Oct. 9th?

I just wanted to be able to see the tires that they had on the car again, and maybe just verify the tire size that they had on it. I am thinking about fitting 245/45/18 on mine. I rememeber in the article, they said that they were going to try different rims and tire sizes on it... And Dave yeah, I will give you a call in a little bit. Maybe I will cruise up there. And on the 9th... hmm I have to check but I am interested for sure!

i'm currently running 235/40-18 on my car. so if you want to go to 245 i think you'll need to go down to 245/35-18 it's best to keep the over all diameter sa close to the factory set up as possible to prevent a false reading of you speed and millage
