Default 20" MC3 wheels on my ISF :)

I did a lot of research and finally decided to go with MC3 for my three piece forged wheels for my ISF. Andy from MC3 was extremely helpful. The best part is that they can design or change any wheels you want. In my setup i decided to go with the Croix but did not want the windows cut in the spokes and he made a custom face for me that did not include the windows.

I ended up matching the centers to the stock color wheel and going with gloss black for the lips. The car also was dropped with Eibach springs and taillights and headlights slightly smoked to bring everything together. Wheels are wrapped in Nitto Invo 285's in the back and 255's in the front.

This might not be for everybody, but i truly love how the car looks now. The offset is perfect and the wheels fit the wheel wells perfectly. I have had the wheels on the car for a couple of weeks and i constantly get compliments. The wheels are very well made and the service and price were unbeatable. I am very happy with my purchase and recommend MC3 without hesitation if you are looking for a great set of wheels and price.



Here are some pics:

Thanks. I actually already have dropped it with Eibach springs I like the ride a lot even with the 20" setup. I dont want to make it any more aggressive. This is supposed to be my "comfy" ride. If i really want to ride on rails i will jump in to my Supra.

Nice, I like the offsets! Lower it a tad bit so it sits on the top of the tire and your golden. I know your lowered already, but get some coilovers, it makes a difference!
