Thanks for the complements.
Coilovers are some old Cuscos
Wheels are XXR 002s with 205/45 all around. I got bored last night an plasti dipped them black. also did the gas door a while ago and the splash guards cause the paint was flaking off.

Here's a few more crappy pics

Maybe I was thinkin because I'm getting a 17x9 +22 it's not low enough offset or wide enough for deep lips and stretch
I'll be runnin 235 45 advans square on em. Not quite stretching
I still have to roll the front tho and I might add 10mm to the rear to make it look right

Gunmetal from the size shot looks better, but at an angle the black looks good as well.

Would painting my stock 15" 5 spokes black look bad? Thinking of plastidipping them black. They're basically mint though. My car is completely stock in the looks department and it's Brave Blue.

I like them gunmetal better too but needed a change. The black does look good in person, better than the pictures show. I rock them black till I get sick of them, then peal it off.

you could, its really up to you. If nothing else, its cheap. It only took two cans to do all 4 wheels and I got them for 6 bucks a can at the hardware store. The thing I dont like about black wheels is that it makes the wheels and tires hard to distinguish from each other. They become a black blob.

And $12 for a change is better than new wheels :P

Plastidip is about twice as expensive here in Canada. It's $10 a can I believe and we only get the basic colors.

I usually hate FD wheels on a FC, but this looks really good. I think its two things that make the wheels work, the color of the car (never seen them on the blue before), and you actually used spacers for proper offset. I say the stance is perfect, would not lower it any more.

Very Nice!

Thanks! Yeah i have come to like the ride height and its practicality.tires rub in the back still a tiny, so i need to roll fenders more/better!

I am thinking of painting the fd wheels white. What do you think? I think itd look good with the blue, and i guess my opinion is the inly one that matters since its my car! Buahaha!
