That's cool. I'm not a fan of any bling on my car. I love it like this. If I ordered Volks, they would look the same. You'll have to see some pics when it is light out though. That pic doesn't do the look justice.

 

It's nice when people don't get pissed off just because others have differnt taste. I will check out your new pictures when you post them.

 

instigator looks almost like your car is painted the JDM purple color. Wheels look good!! Glad you got the size issues all worked out.

 

I would really LOVE to see some brighter pics in the daytime. From what I can see, your setup looks very very nice!

One question. From the closeup photo showing the wheel mounted, it looks like the wheel doesn't mount flush with the hub. Looks as if there is some space between the wheel and hub.

Is that how it really is? Or just how the photo makes it appear?

 

instigator, couple questions:

-do the tires stretch out noticeably on the wider rim?

-also, could you do me a favor and weight the stock rim since its already off the tire? thanks bro

 

The tires do stretch out, but I am using 245/45 tires, so they actually fit much better.

I weighed the stock wheels and I got 19lbs. If that is accurate, I added an inch of rim and still lost 1lb at each corner.

Here are a lot of pics:

It mounts completely flush. There are open areas around where it mounts to the hub, so it looks decieving in the pic. These fit great. I was really afraid that the rears were going to rub the fenders since the car is lowered, but they tuck right inside of the fender. No rolling necessary.

 

thats bad bro, how much did you pay for the wheels and tires all together? you got them all from tirerack right?

 

Damn that would look good on my black evo. hrmmm,,,

 

The tires are $123 each and the wheels are $212. So the total was like $1350. Free shipping on all of it, but I had to pay taxes since I live in Texas.

 

very nice.. how do you like those tires (as compared to yokos)

 

The tires are great. Probably about the same lateral grip, but a much more consistent feel to me. They also seem to heat cycle a little better and make a lot less noise.

 

VERY NICE!! I love the way black rims look... adds a bit of sleekness

I deff plan on getting some black rims for mine soon. looking into Exel TZ-5.... soon, very soon

 

wicked nice rims!
