Hey man,

Nice S14, but I can't help but notice in your sig photo that the wheels of your car are mismatched.  The TTz wheels are designed to be speciifc to which wheel arch its under.  The spokes are supposed to tilt backwards towards the rear of the car. They were designed that way so that it draws air out of them thus helping with the cooling of the brakes.  You've got one in the right direction, and the other in the opposite direction.

yeah fronts are A OK, plus there is a "L" and "R" on the lip and  or on the inside of the rim. depending on the year of the rim. L = driver side.

the fronts are probably correct, but the rears look better.
