Representing at World Of Wheels
No these aren't my wheels but they do look OK in person.
They are some serious BLING -- 20" FOOSE Speedsters
I am getting some wheels of my choice at cost for letting them use my car in the display. Trying to decide on which model I want -- Volks -- Racing Harts -- Advans --- ???
Yes -- that is a GReddy turbo under the hood. :D

If you have a good eye -- you will notice an M3 sitting next to me (IForged 19"s). It is actually a supercharged M3 from the same shop that did my GReddy turbo. We took both cars over to the show together and to the suprise of many the supercharged M3 couldn't pull on my 8. No street racing stories allowed so I won't get into the details -- but we did test them out on the highway and at the stoplight. Now mind you I am only boosting at 5.5 PSI right now til I get my boost controller installed. :D Wait til I get to 9 PSI :D

My 8 won "Best in Class - Euro Sports Custom" at WoW :D
Those 20" Foose rollers really got a lot of looks. Just don't think they are for me.
I'm looking for something different -- performance wheels but ones that not everyone has. Thinking of Advan T6's or PIAA Super Rozza's -- shouldn't see these everywhere I go.

They weigh less than forged SSR GT3's that are of a similar design (26.5 lbs.)

hi car looks great!
question on the greddy install,who did it for you and where did you get it.
i live in iowa and looking for someone to install and would like to feel the turbo difference from stock.

My mechanic (Jason) can install it for you -- he has his own shop here in Omaha and has done a lot of GReddy installs -- though mine was his first 8 -- he got the learning curve out of the way on mine. I bought it online at city auto but I think Jason can get it for the same cost. Let me know if you want his number. You are free to check out my car if you wish -- I should have my final tuning done in a few weeks on the dyno. The power difference is huge :D -- you almost have to learn how to drive the car again -- also have to get used to the turbo sound effects if your an old "thirty-something" guy like me.
