Different wheels for different cars. Every car's a different canvas. I actually settled for my wheels after destroying a set of cheap ones on the Coss Island Parkway and driving to and from work. If I had my druthers I'd white Superturismos or uh...crap. I forgot the make/model but now that you've reminded me I going to go try to track them down again.

i think the white looks good on your lancer it just does'nt go with mine, thats a good reason to have them on, like i said, white looks good with it, just not really feeling that style.

And I'm not feeling your friend's. No sense in arguing style, just responding to the questions you asked.

The white wheels have more bends in them than the Mississippi. The Konig Rated-R's are on it for now. I'd like to make them the winter wheels once I have money to buy a nice new set of summer wheels. Then I can finally install my big brake upgrade after 2 1/2 freakin' years. Man, now I'm really pissed that I forgot the wheels I was so fond of.

have you taken a close look at the hidious headlights on the 06 lancer. congratulations you have succeeded in purchasing one of the ugliest cars of the new year. by the way, the celica might not be all that fast, can't compare to an evo, but i garantee it will take yours anyday.

Not liking the interior or the wheels really. The wheels don't bother me just not my favorite. The bule and gray interior just doesn't match anything in the car except for the gauges which I'm not a fan of. You've got red silicone hoses under the hood and blue interior. Pick a clor and stick with it.

It looks like it would be a really clean car if he would have left the interior alone.

I would black out the headlight housings. I'm not hating on him, just my .02 cents.

red came with the cold air intake, new headlights are on the way, cars in the garage right now being built, i will match up the hoses when its needed, as for the blue, i don't really see how black and blue don't go together.

Quotes, man! Quotes! I was like "wtf did I say to get him to yell at me about the '06 Evo?" Kinda OT, but does the Hotchkis Celica still hold SCC's slalom record?

That guy has an RS, not an RA. The RS is the no frills trim of the Evo.
