Wink Finally Got My Custom Painted Rims

Took me along while to finally decide on everything from rim size..tire size.. wheel design... wheel weight... paint scheme.. yada yada yada.....

PS: Next step drop all around with camber kits not sure on what though....
I was thinking coils in the front and springs in the rear .. time to do my homework...

ENJOY!!

I'm not even a fan of spacers but I have no choice but to recommend them here. Way too tucked in for that look.

and with a drop it's going to be even worse. Atleast 25mm spacers all around are a MUST!

i usually turn my head when I see the kenstyle rear, but your set up actually pulls it off quite nicely..

i'd paint your headlights black to match the hood

I dont see why everyone is all omg get spacers.

i personally dont like it when wheels are right up on the fenders like that, makes me think something is wrong with it.

in my mind the way your wheels sit right now with those offsets are the way i like cars to look, plus when you throw spacers on it man does it throw crap all over the side of the car, especially in rain.

i put spacers on my old 350z and i noticed the sides of my car would get filthy because the wheels were so flush

edit: i like the wheels though, what size wheels and offsets are you running?

BLACK rims with BLUE centers/stripe? HAHA Looks Great! Thought I'd mess with ya.... It's a shame but you do need spacers with the offset you chose for your rims. Coilovers are the way to go, do some major research so you pick the right ones.... Oh yea, love the coupe and all your mods especially the trunk lid!
