Looking for White FD owner With 19" wheels

Hy guys,



I'm looking for a member driving a pretty much stock white FD with 19" mesh Advan Siena wheels and a big deal of lowering.

I got a picture and would like this members contacts (forum name or equal) for some questions.

Thanks a lot

I PM'ed this lady, but got no response yet. Anyone know if she's still attending this forum.

Or got links to the specs of her car?

I've got that pic on my desktop at work. I ran across it about 6 months on here. Didn't know it was a chick's car though, that's pretty hot! I love white FD's but those wheels are a little big...

I've had that picture photoshopped with black center and polishe lip.. guess how that looks ;-)

I'm probably putting on 19" mesh wheels 3 piece, black hart, polished lip and would like to know the offsets on this car because I"ll be needing some rolling of the fenders before I get the car repainted. So I preffer on doing that in advance.

Maybe if I get to know this cars offset i can just tweek it towards my wheel shop and have it on without rolling.

The lowering on this car in combination with the wheels is just magnificent in my opinion.

I've seen that car over at my mechanic's shop many times.... last time it was there for ~ 4-5 months straight. The car looks nice when it's not moving, but the wheels are way too big, and the suspension has no room to work
I'd image any bump bigger than a quarter will require slowing down w/o scruffing up the fenderliner & wiring harness

Thx for the info.... main reason for me to go 19" is that I had the wheel shop put the 18" wheels with tires put them on my car for opinions. Looked great.... BUT... always that BUT...
altough my car is on stock suspension for now it had a huge gap between wheel and rear fender.Themore i noticed that with 225/40/18" tires on them (they were someone elses) they were about thesame size as the stock wheels/tires.

Conclusion: 18" look great but only with one heel of a drop (I will be on yellow Koin's and ground control coilovers)

Why 19"? Well i only drive the car in the weekends. I don't drive it hard, just time to time.
and I'm building soem parts for it because I'm in the fiberglass business and want to us it for advertising on local car meetings and shows.
Further, i already had a chance to find some really nice front tires 235/35/19 which where a bargin.

I admit... the ride and handling with 18"s would be greater for tracking and probably also for daily driving. and If I decide to continue I"ll probably be looking for some used/not that expensive 18" to fool around.

i have 19's on my car. the fenders are rolled.....just a little bit
they do not rub and i don't have that rough of a ride. i have five way adjustable Koni coil overs and many upgraded suspension parts
i enjoy the ride although sometimes i feel that 18 are the way to go.

hey guys...sorry i haven't been responding...I have been really busy working and now that SEMA is over I have time to play online again...

Speedworks: i'll get back to you on all the info you needed...=)

i haven't had much time to play with it..but it's not stock...like someone said...

it has a street port...ARC FMIC, ARC prestige Radiator, DP, HKS Ti exhaust, we made the SARD intakes fit ....ummm...miscellaneous maintenance stuff..and that's about it...

i'll get you wheel specs....you can buy my rims ...I am thinking about selling them , I love them but want something different now...=) The fenders are rolled out a bit to fit the width of both the front and rears

only thing I don't like is the turn signals on the rear pillars. Looks like hell.
