I can't tell if the Nitrous is plumbed. It may just be the angel though. How big of a shot are you running? Hve you done anything to the engine to support running on the bottle?

Those are some sweet wheels too. I really like the black with polished lip on white cars. How much camber are you running in the back? It looks like a lot. I think some widebody rear fenders might be a good addition and allow for better fitment back there, but that's just me.

What have you done to prep the engine for all that NOS? You'll be putting out KA-T HP in no time with that much! Lookin' good, I've got JDM Buddy Club P1 2-pieces with 255's in the rear and I thought mine were wide! Impressive- nice tires too. Last comparible pair I had were Falken Azenis.

yeah really, that looks like some massive camber.. .might wanna get that fixed quick or your tires will go to crap, you can already see the wear on the inside... but they look really good..

nice rims and tires.... i have the same problem you do... massive negative camber to make it so i dont rub.....i believe if i go to a 245 tire i can fix my camber without rolling/ stretching my fenders

Some amount of negative camber induced tire wear can be compensated for by cross rotating your tires whenever you change your oil.

I have a small camber problem with my 245s in the rear, but I can't rotate my tires so I better adjust it...

You should be able to do a modified "rotation." Have a tire shop take the tires and flip them so they can be ran on the opposite side.

My M3 has wider tires in the back (though it doesn't really need them and as soon as I have to buy tires for it the back are going to equal the fronts) and that's what I have to do. Save this and zoom in if you need to/want to but here's a pic from after I got them rotated. Apparently the previous owner didn't care about buying tires left and right. Maybe that's why she couldn't afford the payments....

My Toyo's (and almost every other tire made these days) are directional as well. It can be done. If you have a doubt you can always just ask a reputable tire shop about it.

Gepeto, it occured to me earlier tonight that you were probably talking about asymetrical tires. I'm not sure if those could be flipped.
