slamming shizzle is next.. (me thinks ;) ) but tis gold as you wish !

Some crappy photos as follows, shall get better ones when i install them tomorrow, :yahoo: cant wait yo !

Thanks for looking yo ! :]

Alright fellas, the goldies are in ! I am IRON MAN ! nanananananana iron man !

but not really :ph34r:

here's some crap phone photos,.. not really what i expected... i expected the worse, but i actually like it, ( i think i need bigger rims 19" !!! ) and lowering i can fit my head between that gap <_<

i couldnt fit my D1 nuts (as above), because i needed hex ones soo thanks to phil (fillit) and his nuts i was able to put them on.

soo the D1 nuts are on $a£e on this page

The stats of the rims are 17x7 JJ Rays,6.9kg, +42 Offset all around with about 20% Tread of Bridgestone RE-001 Potenzas.

not overall happy with the rear as you can see.. probably need a lower offset for that one.

but satisfied with the way it looks :]

Will be reverting to stock rims because i dont really like that gap and the tyres are balding, and i dont want any trouble with the popos <_<

Soo fellas, :) should i leave it gold.. or make it black ? or sell it LOL ~!

Thanks for looking yo !

Edit: The hieght that it is sitting at, showing in the above photos are with my set of 50kg rims ea (sarcasm but they are very heavy along with 50kg nuts - again sarcasm) - soo atm it is sitting higher than the photos,

gold actually doesnt look too bad on your car - gives it a bit of a different personality/flavour than I see on most cars. But yeh totally up to you on what kind of "theme" you're going for.. and dude, if you could fit your head between them gaps, I'd be a little worried. But definitely drop her on her as like she deserves.

yeah i was surprised too actually, but ill probs end my spraying em black,

jst kidding about that i can fit my head lol, extreme sarcasm, its just too big in there :( !

looking good, prob need lower offset as it's a tad sunk

once you lower it, it will sink in more..

maybe time for spacers :P

Posted

Yeahh.. need 18s.. I'm gna go back to stock.. the shape of the car makes the 17s look puny :P I need more advice on running offsets/sizes..:(

Posted

Different colour and lower should do the trick, or black plastidip :D

+1 to the lowering (which you know already :P).

In regards to the wheels, you got two options. You can keep the wheels and run spacers (they're illegal) or sell the wheels and buy 18s with a better suited offset. :)

i think ill search for new rims.. better offset, dont wanna be illegal ;)
