That's OK.....

[turnheadz]

tell us about your tire sizes Hank.

[RUN ROD RUN]

Looking good.
Regardless of wheel style, I just love seeing 17" rear wheel vs those 20" or 22" wheels that most of us have.

[supersub]

Lots of sweat n tears on this one! Glad to see you enjoying it again. Just Beautiful i must say.

I thought I heard quite a rumble the other day all the way down here.
Congrats, I'm sure all the hard work was worth it.

I am with you on that those 17" wheels look old school cool.
And that Aqua Blur is not to bad either. I would like to know the tire size too?

As I recall he had an engine fire. Glad his is back on the road.

[nulogic1]

I would think that you would get a smoother ride with the 17" . Would there be a sacrifice on corner handling. You think I'd notice the difference drifting at 90 mph?! There I go again laughing at me own jokes again!
Looking real sweet, Mike

[xs-cash]

cool wheels!!
you gotta let us know what they are & tire size!!

[OLBSSRD]

Way to go!! When do we get to see it in person??

[xoxoxoBruce]

Yes, that's what tires are supposed to look like.

[2005SSR6Speed]

Hank

Looks Great!!!

[Mike in AZ]

I am so impressed with the way it looks. OMG, I didn't know that the Blur looked that deep.......

Drop dead gorgeous paint Hank.

Are you gonna be ready for an evening at the track??????

Actually, Hank's truck probably IS the fastest SSR built by GM.

[turnheadz]

looks like Hank went back to the wilds of the desert

Thanks for all the positive feedback. Wheels are Boze purchased from Joe at Leftcoast 32. Tires are M & H rears are P390/40R17, Fronts are P185/55R17.

Currently still working out some bugs and breaking in the freshened up motor with a very conservative tune. Prior to freshening up the motor it was on an engine dyno and Produced just over 800 hp on pump gas with just 12 lbs of boost.

Now that it on the road I need to save up some money and get a fuel system that will allow me to take advantage of the motors abality to produce some bigger numbers with an increase of boost and timing advance.

I'm just enjoying time behind the wheel again. Should get a little more agressive tune in it by the end of October.
