I can't believe I live in Catonsville (for now) and I've never seen your car before!?!

Not so sure how I feel about everything else, but the rims are very nice.

^^ cool name...

- 4G63- I think I met you before at the white marsh meet-- you do the clear bra install right? I'm 4G63 T's friend.

The hood is made by Seibon btw and I'll take close up pix of the rear spats this weekend and remove the side spats.

West Sucks.... cant really do anything to my car coz if i do popo's gona be poping my hood all the time...But you know gotta pay for the nice weather... So my project is to make it as stealth as possible. Might sell the HKs exhaust and get a quiet one also gona paint my IC and Intake pipes black and hide my filter with the OEM Airbox. If you have one let me know if you sellin it I need extra... Also pare sure na ako sa Army Reserves so I get to stay close to home then I'll go back to school.. BTW love those wheels men....

Over all I like it, though I think the car would look better with the factory skirts/rear, but that is my .02 and its your car/your style, so rock it out man.

ok, nba fan aside...how do you like the g-forces? did you have to use the spacers? what size tire are you running? hows the ride compared to stock? what are you lowered? hows acceleration with these wheels compared to stock bc they are so much heavier?....I ask bc I am looking into the same wheels, as much detailed info you can give me I'd appreciate it!

GO LA! Boston blows! (except pierce)

I'm a big L.A. fan but no excuse in loosing a 20 pt lead then get beat by 39 at a finals game....the Lakers got a big future though...

About the G-Force, they are one of the best bang for the buck wheels out there...18X9 at about 21 lbs per wheel.. I'm running Nankang NSII 245/40/R18, acceleration decreased but high end increased....Ride quality is great, and I'm running BC coil overs.

Only thing I don't like is the quality of the finish...I think its better if its powdercoated....I already have the finish flaking off near the hub and lug wells.

Yea when we get bynum back anchoring down the middle, and gasol can do his fairy things somewhere outside the paint, we will be ok. I lost a lot of respect for Pau over the playoff run.

I think they are actually a tad bit over 24lbs, like 24.25 which is a bit heavy, but definitely liveable, cant find a better looking wheel for the money! so is the finish smooth or does it have some texture to it? is the finish really thin and easy to damage? are you using the spacers? is the ride bumpier than the stock setup?
