This kind man in a brown suit brought me 4 packages while i was away. They are all prettymuch identical
Ok, on a serious note... he brought me my new tires and wheels!! Their 18" BSA rims with a 40 mm offset and their 7.5 inches wide. They are wrapped in 225/40 Pirelli P7000 rubber. Boy are these things shiney!!
Heres some pics that i took before i put them on.. (mind the flash photography and crappy digital camera)

All i have to say is that the toyos that were ont ehre before were absolute **** compared to the Pirelli tyres (hey their made in england ) that are on there now. The car doesnt understeer anymore, or at least i havent done anything crazy enough to make it yet. It looksso purdy too!!
Now i just need to lower it!

Actually to me its "hollering" 3 things, 1, wider rear tires, they dont look big enough, maybe 245's would do the trick.. (they are 7.5 inches wide allready ) and it needs to be lowered and it needs to have bigger brakes! Well the brakes arnt gonna happen, nor is the lowering i dont think, at least not by me, its my dads car, i bought the rims but thats cause they are goin on my car once i find a getrag to put in it (anyone?).
Thanks for the complements! I think they look awsome !

NICE CHOICE!! I have 16" BSA's. I love them. They don't seem to be a well known rim here in north america, but I could not ask for more. I love their styling, they hold up great against rock chips and such (Unfortunately, I have put mine through a lot).
Nice choice!

I'm about to get into that type of relationship. This girl who tells me she wants me to be the last guy she'll ever date is buying my 85 GT, and probably the 17" Konigs that are on the 88 GT I'm buying. I'm gonna love this relationship.

Yes they do look good I used to work for Pirelli building tires, but they closed the last Pirelli tire factory in the US and started to make a state of the art factory in another state. P7000's are still my first choice. The rims are very nice, are they the same rims that Standard has, can you get them in gold.

they are from e-bay, if you do a search for fiero rims (search in discriptions too) they are the ones that have the Fiero listed. You wont get p7000's with them though, that was a limited time offer, im sure that you could work out a deal with them for it though...
