Who's car?

Just wondering whos car this is, I have a feeling he's not on here since this is a Japanese or at least right hand drive and it seems like the majority of the people on this list are from the US. I would like to know his tire and rim size, I love that skinny tire look.

Also anyone know what body kit that is I'm starting to like that front bumper, and now since I got 18x10 on the rear I think I need some side skirts and I think these are some of the better ones not to flashy, so anyone know who makes them?
thanks

i dont think they are painted stockers. look at the end of the spokes (where they meet up with the outer rim). notice how they curve inward. . . back towards the car. i dont think stock rims on an fd do that. they look bigger to me anyways.

Yeah I have to agree with Rotorbrain, these are not stock rims, look more like Enkie RPO's

Those definately aren't the stock 17's painted black. I thought they were at first since the spoke curvatures are definately similar. However, the center of the wheel is completely different on those black ones. There's a circular indentation on those wheels(just like the old style stock 16's) which are not present on the stock 17's. For reference, I've got the stock 17's on my car and the spokes gently curve in to the center.

Yeah I think they are enkei rpo1's or at least enkei somethings. They come black with a blue lip. I don't know much more about them, but I don't believe they were ever sold over here.
