And what R0N1N3 really wants is some Asian popcorn chicken!!!!!1 :yum: :x:
But yeah, some wheel specs would be cool.
I'm not sure if I dig it or not. I need more pics before I can decide. To me, it just seems like there are too many colors for such a small area (red car, black hood, bronze and silver wheels, purpley lugnuts, rusty rotors)...

I like the type of rim. I've always liked 6 spoke rims.

here is the link, i was considering these, they are very nice, but there not much of a lip. the sizes and offsets are very good though.

hey now, don't make fun of the red-turning pink- lugs

i saw them on alex's car a couple of days ago, i don't really dig the fake lip thing, but they are available in good offset. 5zigen is milking that cheap good offset thing for all its worth. Why isn't any other company taking notice?

5zigen loves to do the fake lip thing. but they also do the good size and offset thing too so i'm not complaining.

you're gonna want 20mm spacers for the front and 10 for the rear. +22 just isn't flush enough but i guess that depends on how you feel. i have +5 right now on 8.5 and i still feel it needs 5mm more.
looks good otherwise. there is a lot of color clashes tho... have any full pictures of the car?

I think 17 x 9.5 +22 is pretty flush for the rear.....I don't know what to say about the front since I don't have that size yet.

yea 9.5 +22 seems flush in the rear...at first.
for me, when i put on the 8.5 +25 on the front, they looked so sunk compared to the back(i had 9.5+25 on rear). so i added about 20mm to the front to where i feel is pretty flush. now guess what? the rear doesn't look so flush anymore. should be 9.5 +15. that would be perfect..well, for stock body. if you have a kit, then id recommend going 9.5 +10 at least on rear and 8.5 +0 for front.
