Rota G-Forces Dunlop Direzzas Star Spec

This is for lancer owners everywhere. I have been quietly building my lancer to satisfy my driving needs. I hope this comes as an inspiration to all lancer owners. I have tastefully and functionally modified my car to increase performance. Here are pictures of the car with Rota G-forces 18 x 8.5 wrapped around in Dunlop Direzza Star-Spec 235/40/18. The cars fenders had been rolled by Robispec. Im also lowered on Megan Racing Coilovers. Enough talking. Here are the pictures....


Function over Form:





Some Big Paw Prints:




Btw, The wheels were purchased from Zoeb@wheeldude.com. He is the man and gave me a straight up answer of when the wheels would arrive. He even shipped them out the same day he received them from customs. Just want to give you guys a heads up that he is a great wheeldude to deal with.

A proper photoshoot will be coming when the weather clears up. This car will be sitting in the garage until the weather gets warmer. I also have my APR splitter sitting underneath my bed. It will be installed over the next month or so when I have time. Thanks for looking. Comments and Questions are welcomed.

looks great man, good choice on the megan and rota brands, hard to beat their quality for the price. Keep it up!

I would suggest some hubcaps though maybe...

You're right, the mods are very tasteful and they look good

But I agree, the wheels need some centercaps

I don't want to rock the rota caps. I'm currently looking for some caps though...possibly a mitsubishi center cap. Robispec doesn't have a shop...he visits different states for a couple days each and works out of shops that are independently owned. He was in NJ 4 weeks ago. Hahaha...i did take the pics this morning.

$700 for the tires from Tire Rack.
$850 for the wheels from wheeldude.

$1550 = total. Not bad.

needs a rear or some sort of lip kit

if your going to get the evo x wing it needs something in the back to compliment the wing, it just looks so out of place on stock GTS rear bumpers

I'm liking it a lot. Good work. It's nice to see some 'almost' flush wheels on the lancer.

Your car looks awesome Ankur! I'm glad to see everything fits well, especially with those 235/40/18 Z1 Star Specs which run really wide for a 235 tire
