Hey, what are these side skirts (in post #343 on page 14, I can't link images etc yet as need 5 posts)? I'm keen to hunt some down for a more clean look on my one now after seeing them on a few here.

Also, this thread is brilliant, fully understand wheel offsets now and helped me choose what offset I'll get for new wheels. Some bloody nice cars in here that's for sure.

We like it better than the USDM Rear bumper due to the area of the license plate and the lights or reflectors next to it...

I think those bumpers are cool but I don't like the USDM bumper any less. I'm perfectly happy with the US bumper.

Looks good, but clean your wheels before you go for a photo shoot

Lovin' this fitment. I'm just looking at 18x10 15p for the rears on stock gaurds (rolled inner lip) with 255/40 tyres, think they will work? I was going to go 20p but the wheels I want only come in 15p and 30p..

Front I'm going a 18x9 30p, which should easily clear I'm assuming, going by this thread. Hopefully it doesn't sit in to far.

That 10.5 with the stretched tire in the front just doesn't look good to me...

I don't see the attraction to that kind of look...It's just too much...

>_<

I'll wait till I see the finished product though...

i do agree yoshi with too much stretch, but i think he's actually look pretty decent. 235/40 is a bit more than i want. i'm glad to see it doesnt look too crazy cause id like a 245/35 on my 18x10.5 +15 , so now i know it wont be a HUGE stretch.

^some wider tires will help fill that gap, at those offsets you do not need spacers just wider tires.
