    Not my styles but it does look good. Not into the webby wheels but what I do like about these is that they don't have 10 bolt holes lol.. (y)

    You know, the more I see that stance, the more it grows on me... thats it! I'm dropping my car.

    The car looks great, but don't downplay the pictures. I think the photos are quite nice. But what color is the interior of the car?

    Your car looks awesome!

    Your pictures look like they were taken from Motortrend! (y)

    Where did you get the lowering blocks for the rear, and what size did you use?

    Thanks,
    Jim P.

    Comet lights look good?! :16suspect

    Those lights look decent - to me they don't match the body lines.

    All that matters is that you like it. (y)

    I don't know if you mentioned this already, what backspacing is on your rims. Awesome ride by the way.

    +18mm offset on a 10" wheel is.....
    5.7087 .... roughly 5 7/10" backspacing



    those enkei's look great on there... and this is coming from someone who usually doesn't like wheels bigger then 15-16" on any car....

    i might have to get some 17" x 7-8"s for my mav just going by how sexy yours looks. obviously i wouldn't do RPF1's but something similar.
