Pics of my car and new wheels

Just got the wheels on this week. The wheels are Hayashi Racing. They are 13x7, don't know the offset, but its pretty dang perfect. I'll try and get more pics, but hard to get good pics with my point and shoot. Let me know what you think. Enjoy!






I know, I'm missing a lug bolt, getting that this week.

Wow, I like those a lot! I didn't think I would like the 13x7, but they really look good. Try and figure out what offset those are for us. I'd like to know if possible....

Thanks, my buddy bought the wheels off here in the for sale section. Then he gave them to me as a gift.

If you've got a friend willing to buy you wheels I'd say you got a really good friend.

I like the look better than the FWD look we (and I) are usually stuck with.

Thanks guys. Can't wait when I have the money to get the tokico hp's and the RB springs. It really needs to be lowered, plus better suspension overall.
