    you got the wrong tires mang... you needed 205/45/16's... they would fill up the wheel well ALOT more and give you a smoother ride.. plus they wouldnt have fucked up your speedo

    I'm not so sure I'm digging that rim color & ride height combo. It definitely needs to be lower. Maybe it's the pic but to me it doesn't seem like the rim color goes with the car color very well. You're suspension looks good though. How do you keep it so clean?
    No projects. Life consumes my time and money.

    wash,wash,wash,....I know the color kind of clashes right now...but its no longer going to look like that...its getting new paint this month...but we will talk about that later hehe...I also have my own pressure washer...and it cleans VERY well...and a wire brush/drill combo works wonders!

    Looks really good on the car. I think the red from the rotors comming through the wheel is what makes it look so out of place, or atleast it does to me. I like the wheels though. What color you going to paint it?

    what is the ride like with the 40 series tires, cuz ive been wanting to do the circuit 8s (flat black though) for months now and wasnt sure to get 40 or 45 series. also, do you have upgraded shocks? and what kind of springs do you have?
    still miss mine . . .
