Default New Mooncakes!!!

Finally got my wheels on and I'm hoping that I can actually say that my car is DONE and stop spending money on it. Sorry about the bad pics, I'm still waiting for my bro to give me a professional photoshoot.

I've got the stock wheels and tires if anyone's interested in them, let me know and i'll give you a good deal.

Volk GT-C 19x8.5 and 19x9.5

The color of the wheels go well with the car.

Can't go wrong with Gold GT-C's on a white car. Those turn signal mirrors add a nice touch, too. You have one sexy car - nice job!

thanks guys!

looks awesome , whats the drop on the f-sports springs and hows the ride on them ?
The drop is supposedly 1" all around i believe but i haven't measured them as they sit now. I like them. BUT...i have the clunk noise that most people have. I am hesitant about pulling the springs out and adding the inserts that reduce/eliminate the clunk/contact noise of the springs. I'm guessing it'll take about 2-3 hours :-P
