Only thing I notice are the lips may be too shallow...

This one is for Evo:

Work Meister's are super sweet but also super expensive. I want a set for my FD but the cost is keeping me away.

Hit up Auto Rnd if you want a set though.

I just like showing mine off I actually saw that picture of the black car you posted years ago and it was sort of what inspired me to get my wheels, although the ones in the picture have silver painted centers, I went with the full-polish for my car.

Got them from Rishie at www.autornd.com - Contact him for all your wheels needs

So beautiful WOW. It is crazy how a CYM car can rock either a polished or black look and be stunning!

Also the rear spoiler on that car looks like the RE-Amemiya tail light cover, or another similar version from another company. I know ShineAuto (one of the forum vendors) makes a modified version of the RE-Amemiya tail light cover that gives that duck-tail look to the lights, check out their section on the forum here.

I know the owner of that FD. He owns www.wheelchoice.com, just call and ask for joji. He'll tell you what he's got. he had gold meisters on it when i saw it last.

They are FOR SURE Meister S1 3 piece wheels. Of course i can get you deals on those but like you said it's not for the faint hearted or empty pocketed.

Professors have NOTHING on the Meister IMHO.

Strength, weight, FRIKIN DOPE SPOKE CURVATURE EVEN ON HIGH OFFSET Meisters. I hate how the SP1 flattens out in higher offsets. Looks so weak to me. Where as the Meister spokes are just

FLEXING their SPOKE MUSCLES. hehehehe.

Meister S1 FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Peace, Rishie
