Got my X wheels on... =)

Decided it was time for an upgrade... I saw a thread with evo8/9s rocking the stock x gsr wheels and i thought it looked really clean... so i said y not... looked around on the wheels/tires section on the EvoX marketplace and found a set of mint tires/wheels for a great price... Location/Price was to good to pass up sooo...

Pulled in with my stockers still on... tires didnt have valve stems so i had them dismounted from the wheel and added... Guess this would be ur before pic...




After mounting on car and a quick wash up...







Pics were taken with my IP4 so there not the best... but atleast u get the outcome...

On that note my stockers are up for sale... pm me if interested...

Thanx for looking...

***UPDATED PICS*** 1/24/2011

Got some sun on em to really bring out the color...

That looks pretty good. Never thought the X wheels would fit the viii that well.

the coilovers are fairly new and haven't had much miles on them yet... didnt want to lower the car too much because its my dd and having to swerve around every little hump and bump gets annoying so i left it like that because i know that when the coils have seen a number of miles the height changes (lowers) further more... it wasnt too bad with the 17s but i guess with the 18s its more noticeable...

and thanx for the comp guys...

yeah the stance will definitely change with bigger wheels, drop that back end a little bit and the car will look great

Wow some serious rake going on there - and it's miles tall in the rear.
X wheels look great on CT9As. Got a set on mine.
