    3rd Gee on Fat Fives

    ----Before----



    after new struts were installed (on the lift)
    -----After-----





    yeah i had new struts installed on my car and then i got these rims from a friend that wanted to sell them but i traded him for some 17 inch rims that i was going to put on it...all i need is to finish the body work and finish the interior and it should be ready to roll

    it looks alot better then what you had on there. Looks pretty good, now if you repaint the car, and fix that huge dent/bent under the rear left taillight, i'd give it an 8 on the scale of 1 to 10. since you dont have engine pics, thats why,lol

    Dude. Don't trade him for 17s. Fat 5s are the shit. stay with them. Buy stock thicker tires with fatter sidewallas. they'll ride better and look more OEM than shit. I love you, as a brother, for putting such dope rims on your car.

    The gap between the tires and the wheel well is HUGE.

    You need to drop it.

    Peace.

    That’s pretty much how mine looked for a while, bringing the guard down to the rim makes them looks alot better

    i dont think she will be getting paint any time soon since it has some carb probs thanks for the bump tho. if everything goes right i might get 1 inch drop springs on that thing...since the wheel gap is way too big

    right now im just running stock lx-i rims and it looks alright
