Thanks Ed, but could do this again the way I described please? The composition would be like this shot with one important difference, place the camera on the ground so that more of the tires are visible please.




In the second shot, you only have one tire in the pic and it is hard to see how fat the tires are on the car in relation to the body of the car. However if you have both in the pic, then it becomes much more obvious. TIA!

I think the car looks good with the spoiler that's on it but there's nothing wrong with changing things once in a while.

I like the oem spoiler but with the Ugo/Winn it's a perfect match, forgot how good they look together, thanks for the memory refresh Neo, I say yes.

Ed, I agree with the pic's that Neo provided of his car, that the winn spoiler does compliment the UGO spoiler as a perfect match! I say go for it!

Sorry for reviving an old thread.
As I sit here waiting on my first ever set of 20's, I just wanted to look at Ed's car again. I know I'll see it shortly at the meet today but I wanted to see it now. I'm not that patient.
Ed, like me was dead set against going over 19. Nineteens give a little better ride, more safety and confidence and performance on the road. Problem is with these huge cars, they just don't have that same pop as 20's. Ed finally gave in and now I have as well.
I hate this waiting for wheels to be constructed and I wanted to look at Ed's car to make sure it's worth it.


It is!
