yeah, I was just thinking in the future (as most of us do w/ our cars). That one way I could save some cash, that I could live with, would be just keep the stock 3rd gen wheels but powdercoat them black and polish the lip.
So Im looking to see some 3rd gens that have been modded pretty well and dropped also w/ stock wheels (dont have to be painted, but that will work great too).
Anyways. Thanks alot. =)

 

 

Stockers - unclean

 

Are your wheels crome or polished?

 

Here is a pic of my old FD that was dropped on Eibach's with 99-spec lip.

 

mines is not that dropped but sometimes it looks like it is

 

Yesterday a friend of mine photoshoped my stocker to various colors... Look:


STOCK:




WHITE:




GUNMETAL:




BLACK/BRONZE




DARK BRONZE





Well, I'll probably go with black_bronze option and some spacers. I think it will look great.

 

The lip isn't polished, and the center isn't powdercoated (painted), but you should get the idea.

 

chrome

 

Stock wheels and tire sizes. On RS*R Race springs, stock struts.

 

Not my "everyday" wheels, but they are doing ok for now as track wheels. I'll be looking to change them out next year.

 

Mahjik, I love your Shark Mouth Mod.....

 

Thanks! My bars for the Shark Mod are now black, so they won't stand out quite as much.

 

Thats a good idea. ^^


And its all about the stock rims, 13.7 lbs

 

Yea, but the problem is that the aren't very strong (for tracking purpose). Many people have cracked them on the track. I'll be looking for something stronger next year regardless of the weight.

 

Thanks for all the replys. All very niceee.
I think Im gonna have my stock wheels painted black and polish the lip (black touring, wingless).
Hopefully it will look nice.

 

What tires are on this car?

 

anyone?

 

Look like Advan A048:

 

yeah I was thinking they were some kind of Advan tires - very nice.

 

what kind of paint did you use looks great
