Axis Penta 20s on DG Coupe - DSLR Pictures 20+ PICS!!! SICK 35!

Heyyy!! Finally spring came and I just put my rims on today, did an oilchange, put in my new radio.. just a week away from putting my JWT Clutch/flywheel in and im doing my spark plugs on monday, just order my JWT Pop charger and looking at a spacer right now.. Anyways lets get down to business.. I think the pentas are sick!! Turn heads and the lip is just retardedly amazing. My buddy did a lil photoshoot with his DSLR. I edited the levels and contrasts on photoshop a bit. But yeah thats her. Im just hitting 100 000km on it right away and if you guys could give me some pointers on what to do to the car.. I just did a coolant flush, diff oil, motor oil, im doing plugs, clutch, and air intake im gonna get all the belts checked out on tuesday. thanks in advance!

Rims: Axis Pentas 20"
Front Tires: 245/35/20 Falken F452s
Back Tires: 275/30/20 Falken F452s

Alright I wanna get one thing clear before anybody hammers on me for the thread profiling part. So the thread height is measured by a percentage of the width of your tire so this means. 245/35s is the same height as 275/30s. End of discussion. The front tires arent meatier.

The front tires look Meatier.







Nah, jp! Looks good. Though, it does look like the back is higher. Maybe just the angles.

Well I bought my G from a dealership last year. and I dont exactly know what the previous owner had on it. It seemed bone stock to me unless the dealership replaced a few parts before sellling it to me which I doubt. but yeah it does seem that the front is a bit lower i agree.

the front tires are NOT supposed to be the same height as the rear. So they ARE meatier than they should be. The correct front tire size to match the OEM diameter is 245/30/20
