Yeah the aftermarket G coupe headlights are a joke IMO

That's why mine are oem headlights modded with projectors in the fog lights and trs halos and not the ghetto aftermarket headlights.

Shane are you going back to form?!?! Didnt you just sell your Works and got coils and got some volks or rays to be more function??

Side profile of the wheels. Rears arent on yet bc my tires are apparently too small... Trying to stretch 245 Nankangs on a 10.5" step lip rim. Took it to many shops but no go. The barrel valley has a dip, which allows all the air to escape while using a cheetah going to have to order a 255 Nankang (btw Nankangs naturally run narrow. A 235 federal would do just fine on these 10.5)

Nothing too crazy. I wanted something pretty fitted but not hellaflush. I still want to be able to drive it on a daily and go fast without ruining anything lol.

wtf kind of shop cant get a nankang 245 on a 10.5. i ran them on my 10.5's for a year. blain/4dgs ran 245/35 on 11.5s without any issues. nankangs stretch for miles because of their soft compound.

Apparently the nankang ns2 I got are pretty hard and are "too new", which gives the tire shops a hard time to mount them with a cheetah. I took it to two diff shops and none of them were able to do it. I ran 245/35 Delinte on a 11" before without any issues. The thing is that these Nankang tires run narrower than other brands. The 245 Nankang is the same width as a normal Delinte 225 tire. I measured the width of the Nankang and it was ~9". So on a 10.5" wheel, I dont see the issue. BUT from what one of the tire shops were telling me, its bc of the dip in the barrel valley.. here is a picture

Its that top left dip in valley that causes the air to leak out when using a cheetah. Im most certain that the flame trick would do it but Im just too much of a pu**y to do it.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Thank you. My specs are 9.5J +5 O-disk and 10.5J -3 O-disk. I initially wanted 10" & 11" but Work didnt offer 11" in step lip. AND I wanted -8 all around but it was too late to request it after the order was put in.

Thank you. Its nothing spectacular or crazy. Just simple and clean. I will get more pics once the rears are on
