I gave it to the panel beater to get rid of, sorry. I have nowhere to keep it. Shame, I should have kept it, and swapped it when we go to car shows so I still have a shot at winning the stock category. :)

Just post a pic when the thread opens at the first day of the month. Usually fills up by the second day. Once we have 10 entries, or after 15 days (doesn't usually take that long), voting starts. Check this (http://www.g8board.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26837) thread for more details.

The one month I decide to submit a picture I happen to be going up against one of yours! Not fair! :)

Your photos are always amazing, and I would have voted for yours if I didn't feel obligated to vote for my own!

I haven't had the car long enough to have a chance at taking many good photos. And you're right about Steve's photography... it's hard to overcome the advantage his $1000+ lenses give him! :)

I have a set of 20x9 Matte Black VMRV710's waiting on rubber. I promised the wife I would wait until we need tires for the 19's anyway to buy them.

You're welcome, Steve.

Easy solution. Tell her that you need new tires for the winter.

I live in South Louisiana, it's rarely gets below freezing, I have NEVER experienced standing snow on the ground. On the rare occasion that we get a flurry, it's gone by the time the sun comes up.

Same here. Winter brings rain. My wife doesn't know anything about cars, so I just tell her it's a safety issue to avoid hydroplaning. :D

Or take her out in the car and go sideways around a corner and say, "See! These old tires are dangerous!"

HA! He would try that too I think. You could also make your tires wear out prematurely. I'll leave it to you to figure out the best way to do that. :burnout:

What sizes are you going with? The dollar keeps going down in value so you might as well spend your money now while it's still worth something :)
