Talking Updated: Brilliant Silver, Nismo & Coupe 19's

Disclaimer: Apology to the regulars who see somehwat of the same post every few weeks, but I had to share the good news!

SO, since my unfortunate car jacking I have made two major improvements to my G that every 03/04 sedan driver should make!I serioudly feel 100x better when I drive, knowing the car looks so good

Nismo/Aero Kit (F/R)
19" Coupe Wheels
Removed the Mud Gaurds

Since I put my wheels on , I just wanted to post pictures for those of you who are walking/driving in the shoes i was last week. (Thanks to MrG3FizZo - great seller)

I've experienced a substantial gain in handling, the ride comfort is relatively the same, a little bid louder but nothing i cant handle, and no rubbing thus far.

coupe and z springs are coming! but here they are..

oem rays wrapped in kumho ecsta spts 225/35/19, 245/35/19.

Sorry for the Low Res, I left My Rebel XT with my family, so here is the best my treo could offer!

The 19s look good on BS. My next mod has to be the nismo kit. Is the IS250/350 yours too? I want to see that modded too.

I took this picture at a friends place nearby the seller only 15 mins after buying the wheels! Again, cell phone shot but it should do the trick.

I really like the look of the coupe 19s...Here are pics when I had the Coupe 19s last year...If you need to know what it looks like with the Z spring drop...


front drop...

I think the rear dropped a lot lower than this at one point...

Thumbs up

those look nice...I'm really feeling the look of "no lip wheels" on the silver sedans.

aum003: Good start. My only question is why you went w/ that tire size (as they supposed to be 225/40, 245/40). They look extremely thin. Did you do it for stiffer handling? 'Cause I think 40% will look much better IMHO.

Btw, how much did you pay for the aero kit?

I bought the wheels with tires, luckily enough I wanted these exact same tires.. the reason is with sedans, people have been complaining about rubbing oon the rear fender with 40's and since I don't have them shaved or rolled I wanted a little bit of a buffer.. i do appreciate the handling however, and maybe next set I'll consider 40's, the road noise may subside.

the aero was 2k.
