New Shoes and New Socks..

It has taken over a year to get to this point and it has been worth the wait.

I snapped a few pics today just days after getting my Ksports BBK installed. I'll write up more on them when I complete the brake in period. Pics aren't as nice as I'd like them to be since my car is still pretty dirty..so it's just far shots for now..

Before Pic:

The breakdown..

Work Gnosis GS2 Burning Black 20's staggered.
Front 20X8.5 R-Disk et 38mm
Rear 20X10.0 O-Disk et 45mm

BBK:Ksports Fr 8pt Rear 6pt. 13" Rotors on both
Drop: None

Nice...agreed, you need to drop it.

Rotors look small for 8-pots. Also, offsets on the wheels are a little high for my taste.

You finally got'em! Worth the wait though. Looks good. Remember what I said about my NF210 drop..mild but sufficiently reduces the gap and issues whatsoever.
