I understand the need to personalize~ your rain visors/rims~ i just wish that you waited a bit to build up the warchest~ but as long as you're happy then i'm happy for you.

oh no not Rotas... no offense, but i'd rather save the money for some better wheels :sad:

I'm in to it. Whats wrong with the wheels?

ASPLS430 03-21-12 04:54 AM

To each their own.. there were many other choices in that budget range. This is a newer Rota wheel that hasn't been done on many cars and I like the look. Always liked gold on blue, did the same with LMs on a BMW before. I was wondering the same on the springs, my sales guy insisted they were F-sport springs but the color is wrong. I might have to go with either Teins or F-sport as Im rubbing at this height. I think the front sticking out a bit is fine, tire is a little stretched. Nice 19s and tires will run me a good 4k at least and I park outside. Car isnt even at 1000 miles yet. Id prob change in a few months depending how biz is haha

Changed to these wheels, too much rubbing issues on the +20s and dont want to spend all that money on cambering front and rear. Lowered on H-techs, this pic is right out of shop before it settled. Added yellow HIDs in fogs as well.

not feeling them

this thread is a roller coaster :p

I actually like the first set, the color combo was on the money.

This new set isnt too shabby either, I would look up how to plasti dip your front grille, would make it look 100x better IMO

Not feeling the first nor second set....but i think the gold actually goes better with ur color car

ASPLS430 04-11-12 01:35 PM

I like the gold too, but the offset was rubbing like crazy and I cant put more than 2 people in the car or it just shreds the hell out of the tires. I will probably get some VSXX gold 19s near the end of the year when my bonus comes in. Black/grey matte wheels pretty much goes with every color.

I have the Carson black pearl front grill surround on order.

better than the first set of rims you posted IMO!

Individual 04-11-12 01:42 PM

Both sets look good, but would look a lot better lowered, whenever you're ready for that. You just need to add some tire shine!

its lowered on h-techs, i know most people like 2" plus drop or coils but I regularly have more than 3 people in the car plus I deal with slopes and pot holes in San Francisco daily so dont really want it that low. Ive had cars with bags and coils before, slammed to the max etc but as I get older I tend to forget how low I am and make a mess of lips and bumpers lol

Im diggin the subby blue and gold but the lc818's fit a bit better and your plate? Is roco a XXX star or is your car a roxy contin? haha props bro
