Hi,

Just got my wheels on the car!

These are Work Emotion 11r 18 x 9.5 +30 offset all around, 5mm spacers in the rear.

Still thinking about that.. I won't be able to get off the curb in my driveway if I go lower with the kit.

Kuro, you're car looks great! The purple lugs, the wheels, the kit, everything! Everything, except the tail light overlays; ditch those things!

Otherwise very nice route you've gone

Mike, yessiiirrrrrr

If it works for you then that's all that matters

I say you get the racing beat spoiler to replace the OEM and fill those holes.

I tried recording it, but it blew up the camera.

But really; this thing is way too loud, when coupled with an unresonated midpipe + header + intake. I was able to drive this setup with an hks hi power for a year, without getting pulled over. That certainly won't be the case here! I'm working on welding in a resonator but I just got the thing yesterday...
