They don't look like forsights. Forsights are a really aggressive

No. Foresights are only "aggressive" if you have the 45mm fronts.

And he would know. His car has foresight widebody as well.

Looks baller, but the purpose of wasting money buying an 11" wheel to run a 225 would be what exactly? you can stretch a 225 on a 9" wheel w/ much less headache and wasted $$$

I don't like the stretched look & having the rim exposed like that.

Function over looks all day long. If it's working for you that's all that matters.

none of these cars will make F1 nor will racing a production chassis get you very far as far as a motorsports career goes so might as well enjoy it and go for looks/fun while your at it =p
Function is a poor excuse to have a car that looks like poo

Sorry but I would rather have a good performing car that may in someone's opinion look like poo then to have a good looking car that performs like poo. For example the idiots that cut thier springs to get that slammed look. Yes it may look good but usually drives like ****. I just would worry about appearance last, but everyone is different.

There's no sense in going on for pages on end on this we all have our own opinions. I think that for some reason my comments were taken out of context. I'm not saying drive around in a bucket that performs well, there's just no reason to try to be flashy before properly working on the other aspects of the car. This is just my OPINION

Unfortunate. I like Shine's quality but DMAX simply doesn't compare to Forsight
