Default My 250 + a friends S2K

Here are some pics of my 250 & a friend's S2K after a quick car wash. My car is basically stock except for the GFX lip and lights. Future plans include rear lip, 19's, eibachs, and an intake. Let me know what you think of either car.

Your car looks great!

P.S. is your friend color blind because I think those rims have red painting on them. he should have chosen something else.

They were all chrome, but he added some red accents. I personally like the look of his wheels, it adds a little flare.

Ewww at the s2k
Point of changing rims is not just for better looks but also functionality as in lighter weight for better performance. Your friend did the exact opposite. Sorry to be mean.

Your IS looks good though.

I actually like the rims of the S2000, looks nice along with the red S2000.

it's a nice rim no doubt, but it doesn't go on the s2k since it's not a DUB car, and also need a drop bad, nothing worse than seeing 4x4 s2k
