Nice and minty fresh

looks good, how come the front emblem is upside down:updown:

NitrousOxide Apr 24, 2010 04:21 PM

How does the car feel?? do u feel it heavier (wider wheel/tire, or heavier)..

I have the same wheel but in bronze!! Not fitted yet, but I will go with 255-35-18 not 40..

Im really worried about rubbing issues :crap:

K1lla Haz3 Apr 24, 2010 04:25 PM

the car feels much more stable (as if it wasnt stable to begin with lol) but it really does feel different! i went from a 18x8.5 +35 to a 18x9.5 +22....so its much much wider.... they dont feel any heavier really.. not noticable to me at all...

as for the rubbing.... if your car is lowered, you will 100% need to roll the rears.. mine are rolled and pulled a bit, and the bumer slighty rubs a bit..ill be fixing that soon... but youll love it!


as for the upside down emblem.. hahahaha... just trying to be different!

crave Apr 24, 2010 05:54 PM

looks good!!! loose the wing tho...keep it the way RS should be...lol

lol... the rs came wingless so the new owners could put whatever wing they wanted on there.. i love the stock wing, but plan to upgrade to the arp gt300 wing... but to me, an evo should have a wing! rs or not:):)
