Im so excited i just cant hide it

I guess I'm the only one who's not a fan lol, that style wheel never looked right to me on these cars. IMO, your last wheels you had were much better. But as long as you like it then have fun with them! Your car needs a Pre98 trunklid too :)
 
I like the style of the rims but honestly with as low as the car is sitting it makes the wheels look too small.

Thank you, and no, although it is very similar to Smalls'. Credit goes to starjammir when he owned the car.

My car needs your hood haha! I still have the team dynamics sitting around, not really sure what to do with them. I always like having a spare set of wheels but they are a bit too nice for that job. They are awesome track wheels though. Probably should have just kept the SVTF's. oh well

I think it's more because of the smaller tire size. When I step up to 225/45/17 it'll look better, the tires on it now don't have too much life left.
 
For some reason I thought a +35et wheel would stick out a bit further but none the less I'm a huge fan of mesh wheels. Looks good too bad they don't make these in 18's though.
 
Wow dude, those wheels look sweet on there!! I like em alot.
That car looks sooo nice in general. I remember seeing the pics when starjammer had the SVTF wheels on it, and I loved it then too.
The car just looks awesome being that low.
 
Just some quick pics I took outside, still crap but much better than the cell pics. Proper photoshoot coming this fall when hopefully I can get the exterior finished.

rear tire clearance..about one thumb's worth. getting 225/45/17s to clear will be...interesting

Nice pics! Those headlights look great with that hood. And now the wheels make it look even sexier.:cool:

Yeah I was gona ask about the 225/45s, but the front looks even lower than the rear for clearance..:eek:

Yes the front looks a tad lower, but clearance is the same. I will more than likely raise the car up a tad, but for now I haven't had any rubbing issues and I've been driving it a lot lately.
 
Car looks really great. Would look really good with carbon fiber mirko if you had one, or a regular one for that matter.
 
much better pics man i really like the way it looks. what kind of suspension you running i like the way it looks and i need new suspension so if you know that wold be great thanks in advance
