Lookin good budd!

goldiejase Aug 30, 2011 03:59 PM

Very nice, 19" definitely fills the arch's better :)

Babi@Force-Fed Aug 30, 2011 04:05 PM

19s ftw

dyss. Aug 30, 2011 04:08 PM

gorgeous set up. gj

EXcel4600c Aug 30, 2011 05:37 PM

*******! I just nutted all over my iPhone. That's sick with the bronze.

FLOW1 Aug 30, 2011 05:45 PM

Overall sick.

91GSX Aug 30, 2011 05:57 PM

very nice pare!! I HATE YOU:D

hova00 Aug 30, 2011 06:11 PM

Looked good with the 18's but i think the X needs 19's to look proportioned.

Either way impressive looking X.

beetle_orange Aug 30, 2011 06:17 PM

mark, great to see you are still modding. car looks great!

badhabit90 Aug 30, 2011 06:44 PM

looks tasty...:beer:

markg1018 Aug 30, 2011 06:47 PM

thanks guys!

ICP: I have some more pictures of a RR with bronze wheels, would you like me posting them?

wrxnevox Aug 30, 2011 07:09 PM

looks good!!

LVSBB6 Aug 30, 2011 07:10 PM

CE28N on X = win

RallyBud Aug 30, 2011 07:21 PM

That is one of the best looking X's I've seen. Nicely done!

SamsonEvoX Aug 30, 2011 07:25 PM

Really, really nice. I much prefer the Volks with the bronze over the Wedsports that you had. Seems like the 19" fills up the fenderwell much nicer. 5 star rating!

eyler_evo_x Aug 30, 2011 07:33 PM

The 19's fill it up better for sure, but I think you need more camber and more low. For some reason it looks very high...

Love the CE28's, though. I'm rocking a set myself.

Showbizz41 Aug 30, 2011 08:45 PM

Im a fan

LIVEEVIL Aug 30, 2011 09:15 PM

LOooks nice man. Bronze is a great color.

tkromer Aug 31, 2011 04:08 AM

Absolutely looks great, both height and width. How much of a ride killer is it though?

Evo Tengoku Aug 31, 2011 07:17 AM

I like both sets. Clean RR!

Dstretch33 Aug 31, 2011 08:42 AM

Wow, it looks much better with 19s.

Evostare Aug 31, 2011 10:15 AM

Congrats of grabbing the set! might have to join you soon or jump on some RE30's :D

A replica of Archie's old car before the whole yellow theme.

4G63LancerEvo Aug 31, 2011 12:39 PM

Looks good. CE28Ns all the way!!!

?????????????????

jdm sam Aug 31, 2011 09:39 PM

19s def fill the wheel wells 100x better. just tire options are limited if you run 275/30/19

blincoln423 Aug 31, 2011 11:35 PM

like everyone else said, 19's are definitely the way to go on the X, it looks complete with 19's. Car looks great!

4g63girl Sep 1, 2011 08:34 AM

I really like the red paint on the X. There aren't many X's around here on the streets to admire. Only when I drive by the windows.

Wheels look great! Nice choice.{thumbup}

Vivid Racing Sep 1, 2011 09:31 AM

Looks great. Pretty flush but functional, and it's a great color combo.

Thank you Vivid!

mindovaanything Sep 24, 2011 11:33 AM

very nice!

Saikou_kun Sep 24, 2011 11:34 AM

I like your color combination ALOT ! That is so bad asssss !

Evo_teamX Nov 21, 2011 11:47 PM

Now I saw your wheels, "ASTIG PARE"......

nonschlont Nov 22, 2011 01:23 AM

very nice. {thumbup}
I also think the X's need 19's to look proportionate, like the 9's do w/ 18's...

reggiesd Nov 22, 2011 08:48 AM

looks great...looks like it rubs on the rear though.

It shouldn't, with those specs. If it does, it's only on big bumps. 19x10.5 +22 is what we recommend for the Xs

jdm josh Nov 22, 2011 02:59 PM

looks really good love ce28's

msb175 Nov 22, 2011 04:13 PM

both wheels look awesome, but i like the weds more. either way, you can't go wrong.

markg1018 Nov 22, 2011 04:16 PM

No rubbing issues or whatsoever...
I was thinking of lowering it more but I don't want to sacrifice the front lip and the hassle of driving too low.

sonic_evox Nov 22, 2011 08:35 PM

any problem with fender rubbing?

edit nvrmind just saw the posts above, im running some 18x9.5 and im kinda scared to lower my car

euntaeyi Nov 23, 2011 11:24 AM

mmmm... much better

markg1018 Nov 23, 2011 12:12 PM

Just for an FYI:
No rubbing issues on this set-up
Camber settings are set to a DD and get much more life on tires.
Fenders are slightly tapped and folded. (No rolling done)

Mistaken Nov 23, 2011 05:17 PM

Looks amazing. LOVING that color combo

blxmjx Nov 24, 2011 04:18 AM

looks really good. please leave stance as is.

Terton01 Nov 24, 2011 07:34 PM

Looks great! Did you notice a slight difference in acceleration for the worse due to the larger wheels?

markg1018 Nov 24, 2011 08:10 PM

Not much of a difference. I just notice a little difference on the ride.

RPWIII Nov 24, 2011 09:44 PM

Looks great! Love bronze CE28N on RR! What kind of difference on the ride did you notice?

markg1018 Nov 25, 2011 05:33 AM

Thanks!
A slight harshness on the ride since the tire profile is thinner. Also, being it a Nitto NTO5 (which is alot louder than the Nitto INVO).

mindovaanything Nov 25, 2011 09:03 AM

LOVE IT! Makes me want RR and 19's

Evostare Nov 25, 2011 05:24 PM

Mark - your tires look stretched on your last picture.. is that just the picture or is that how it is ? let me know cause i just placed an order :D

I think that NT05's are skinny in nature compared to the meaty INVO.
275's are the size to start for the 10.5 wide wheels.
