These are all friends cars, the orange one is a former car of mine. There were 2 or 3 more, didn't get to catch pics of them this time.



What size rim and Hoosiers are on the back?
 
Went to see my friend to get a new head unit for my system. When I explained to him what I was doing with the head unit when the problem occurred he said that it's probably the ribbon for the faceplate. So I took my spare head unit that was stuck on dim display out of the GP and took the ribbon out and put it in my main head unit. Now I have a fully functioning radio again. The Apline unit that I have is from 2004 but the normal price on Ebay for a used one is over $250 US. My friend know I can afford it any high end head unit in his store but instead he told me what the problem was that was an easy fix, friends like that are rare.....🙂

28x14.5 Hoosier Quick Time Pros on 15x10 with 5.5 back space. Stock width 9 inch, frame notch and min tubs.

These seem to be about the same size as a 28x10.5 W for the record. They came with the wheels.

that's pretty cool. The display went out on my radio last fall ( same issue ) but the remote still works. So as long as my memory holds out I am good to go.

what radio do you have, I just sent an email to these guys cause they have no parts listed for the alpine 9835. The ribbon is supposed to be around $5
