I always like the Hiro's they seem to work real well with the lines of the 8.

Nice choice of wheels. Now slam the muh fugga.

Thanks guys for all the comments.

Clear corners, hmmm wasn't going to do them at first, but might as well try them out, it's a cheap mod anyways.

the eibach progressive rate springs will drop it nice, i'll get pics asap once installed.


I myself like the rims alot better, car handles a little better with this tire and wheel setup.. compared to the skinny 7.5 inch rim of the old enkei's.

For the people that say go bigger? 18x8.5 are plenty. for a sports car.. any bigger is kinda pointless with the extra weight. 18's are 22lbs(like stock).. 19's are 26.5 lbs

Honestly the car looks 10x better in person, you could see the lip a little bit better in person, but its still dark. I was thinking about doing somthing a little different though... with an orange lip? what do you guys think? or should i leave the black get a cf hood, cf turnk and paint the roof black? it's still up in the air, we will see.. this winter, the cars going to be garaged and thats when the major **** happens.. fi... cough..cough..

it's hard to really capture matte black in the shade. shine the sun on it and you can see it perfect and the sun won't blind you.

Woah, you had 7.5 before. Ouch, smaller than stock. I'm not a big fan of all black wheels unless they are bigger and glossy. However it is an improvement.
