The A's went with the previous car I'm afraid!! I was hoping to hold on to them in the sale but the guy wanted them! Was'nt that disappointed in the end that they went. As soon as I saw the wheels on the car the rear looked amazing with the fat 9's... but the 7.5 up front just didnt do the wheel justice.

9's all around are the only answer!
