It isn't a nice comment at all but we're entitled to our opinions.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I came close to not buying them because i felt the spokes were too thin and then i tried really hard to picture it with bn, said **** it and bought it.

Midnight obviously had the same vision i did and it looks sick.

Lol. I have the same spoiler combo but type I bn front without the ftp's cut out.

Prolly gonna graft a 180sx kouki spoiler on before long because the sport spoiler is too mild for bn and i'm not paying $800 for a foresight.

Wheels finally came into my local shop. I haven't had time to pick them up yet but i'm stoked. Mothers power ball, billet polish, a shitload of easy off and aircraft stripper......then pics.

I just updated. Lol.

I'll have them in soon.

RE TII, i'd have to have mine polished to CHROME standards, meaning people would ask me "damn, is that chrome?" Time consuming but i have this awesome picture of a finished car in my head that gives me the boner to end all boners. Ha.

If the gunmetal mb coats the wheels with wasn't so damn flat i'd run with it. If team burst built an fc, it would look mine when it's finished.

My buddy was telling my i should do the same, but stripping the paint is heart breaking to me cause these wheels are brand new..I dont know how much it is to get them chromed but i was thinking to get them powdercoated like these..or even just buy them..

You can buy cst's from japan that come in chrome. Probably be faster and cheaper than buying mb's to chrome out/polish.

RE-TII, is that fitment in the rear WITHOUT spacers?

If so i'm going to need atleast a 25mil.

I pulled my rear fenders out until the metal said "no moar".

Awesome.

I picked up a pair today. Gotta go mount some fronts on the others when i decide what i want/what will fit. I twisted my ankle yesterday so there will not be any test fitting. I had to force myself to do the little bit of body work i'm getting done as i type this.....

this looks like stock unmodified fenders and lowered. are these 18s though? This is virtually my car, less the rims. so What size offset is this and how can i make em fit like this on my car?

heres mine as it sits:

They look like 17's to me. Could be 18's. Bastard. So sad because i said i NEED 18's in the rear, right?

















































I meant it. These are 17's all the way around, although it looks like i'm rocking 18's up front and 17's in the rear. Camera illusion.

okay im reviving this dead thread... im planning on getting mb battles as well. would like to know what is the best fitment to buy for my stock front/rear fenders?? i want to get the 17x9.5 +15 fitment all around. i have PBM coilover setup. would i need spacers to fit these on? will it fit straight up in the front and rear and do i need a roll/pull fenders to tuck these in nicely? also what tire sizes would make these have a perfect stance? thanks
