Default Some wheels for now... don't want to roll stock

Don't have funds for the gold VSXX I want, so until then. I just wanted something to roll on for time being. Got these from Zoeb at WheelDude. Gold Rota MXR 18x9.5 +20 all around mounted on stock Bridgestone 225 and 255. Car is still on F-sport springs, still deciding on what I can get away with without coils as I may go air in the future. Car is dirty and pic is iphone. Will take more as I do more mods. Front stick out about an inch and rear is pretty flush.

Are you sure you're on F-Sport springs? It seems a little high....maybe sport suspension?

2012 F-Sport is a fine ride my friend and I love the UB.

I am thinking I like the stock rollers better but I understand the need to personalize your ride. Did you have the F-Sport springs added at purchase? It does seem a little high for the F-sport Springs.

He probably meant Spings from his "F-Sport"... which aren't as low as the F-Sport Springs that normally aren't included with the F-sport models
