18's on my 88 SPG, FINALLY !!!!

So today I went by the shop I purchased my rims from to hopefully get the rims installed & after 40 minutes of searching, they finally found new bolts which fit the rim as well as the car.
The ride is actually very comfortable but then again they are the original springs (166K miles) & I don't know how old the shocks are. I have Yokohama Parada's 225-35-18 & the handling has been awesome so far. WAAAAAAAYYYYYY better then the A-520's (205-50-16) I had on there before & they are also a LOT quieter :o)
Hopefully in the near future I will be able to throw on the Intrax springs & Koni shocks as well as the SAS airbags. I have gone around a few turns as well as over some curbs where the aero rims on my 87 SPG would rub & these did not.
I will hopefully have some pics soon :o)
