Default mellowcmb's car with kranze wheels

i was sorting my pics and i think i got some nice pics of mellowcmb's car, with the kranze bazreia wheels by weds. to be honest, i never really liked the wheel design in the past when i look at the demo cars on weds' site, but after seeing mellowcmb's car in person, i changed my mind

i believe those wheels are 19x9 and 19x10, with 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. correct me if i am wrong

very nice car carlo!

The big question to me is which body kit is better between these two. The exclusive or the wald? It looks like you might scrape less with the exclusive plus it is cheaper, right? I wish I could have seem those three in person, you guys could charge admission.

it comes down to how "complete" you wan it to be, and what style you want. imho

1) the exclusive is more "noticeable". if you want people to know you got something, i think that's the wald. wald is very subtle in a sense that it flows so well that people can't tell (definitely not subtle in the sense of clearance...)
2) the wald is a lot lower than the exclusive. carlo's car with the exclusive kits is quite a bit lower than mark's car with wald, and if you measure, the gnd clearance is about the same, so there you go. my car is different, i got 20s and i always have almost 1" more clearance
3) i like the wald being a "full" kits, you get the front and back and also sides. the "problem" i have with exclusive is that once you put it on, the sides actually looks a bit too high, and you want to get something for the sides too. you can always mix match, but it's hard to find a good matching one. for example, i don't think it's a good idea for carlo to get the wald sides coz' they are too low. that will give you a very hard time looking at kits from different manufacturers and mix match them
4) yes the exclusive is cheaper, but also keep in mind it's 2 pieces only compared to 4 pieces for the wald. if you end up having to get some sides with the exclusive kits, honestly i think the overall price would be close, give or take a little.

definitely put a lot of thinking before you decide on the kits. it's not something you wanna change often. keep in mind you still have to pay for painting and installation

oh and you are always welcome to join us to check out our kits. this past weekend was a rush trip (bad me). you can always try to hit up with gsxotic, he's probably the "closest" to you
