For the wheels i've to wait for works emotion xd9 18x9 +30 // 18*10 +38 (in grey i think, i've to do a lil' photoshop to see ^^)

Front brake need to be changed..
So new front stoptech drilled&slotted rotors + pads ordered.

I make a little photoshop for choose my next wheels color..(work emotion xd9 in 18")
Your opinion about color?

(low+grey)

I plan to select following wheels sizes (with oem fenders) :
front 18x9 +30 (225/40/18)
rear 18x10 +38 (245/40/18)
Like says on the wheels threads..For the rear it's OK with stock fenders and for the front with stock fenders what is the best ? 18x9 +30 or maybe +38 ?

Little order of the day. Vleds parking light 5led w5w

juvi22003 May 24, 2013 12:38 PM

cant go wrong with whichever one u choose, the first one look more like bronze, if thats the color u were going for.....that would be my first choice

Guigui May 26, 2013 11:58 PM

yep i think i can't go wrong with this wheels, put hard to choose the color ^^ with white it will looks maybe more "sport"

1sWt2GS May 27, 2013 01:53 AM

I don't like either of those colors!

Guigui May 27, 2013 11:03 PM

Final choice for wheels will be XD9 18x9 +30 & 18x10 +38 in WHITE
Waiting for delivery of my stoptech front brake.. it's time to study a little DIY front brake replacement on IS250 ^^
