Laser Red 2003 Coupe
XXR 530s in Chromium Black
Rears are 19x10.75 +15 with 295/30-19
Fronts are 19x8.75 +15 with 245/35-19
Dropped on 350z Tein S-Techs with 3/4 inch spring mount mod and rolled rear fenders.
Installed today so I'm thinking the springs will settle more.

Thanks mate, the roof racks are for surf/paddle boards so it was a permanent necessity. Currently looking for a decent tint shop atm.

bahaha its ugly, i hate it, and water is leaking into the trunk because the previous owner thought it was a solid idea remove the rubber grommets as well as using caulk instead of 3m tape to hold it down. Want a strafe but a broke college kid can't afford much.

Working the corner, life guarding, sometimes even both at the same time.

Wheels were a first priority for me when I got the coupe because the stock 17s are lame. Didn't have the funds or means to get works or BBS so I settled for these. Happy with my choice and have got nothing but compliments. Maybe not the best wheels made but they look pretty solid.

They do indeed look solid! I roll on XXR as well and I know they are nothing special, but they also look solid!

As for the topic, can't tell you're lowered ;-p

I like the wheels, though 10.75 is seriously wide. Looks good though, I think the drop will settle a little, but the stance looks good.
Is the front grill painted to match the wheels, or is that just the pic/lighting? If it's painted to match, nice touch and looks good.
Like said, needs tint.
And I cringe to thing of how the roof racks are mounted. Drilled?
Wing leak should be an easy fix, take off and remount with 3M tape and a good silicone sealant.
Then find someone who wants to trade trunk lids and get a wingless one.

Great looking LR coupe Hang+10! Love the stance, those big azz tires out back...cool! One suggestion, well maybe two. Get your windows tinted which will save your interior and remove the Tein stickers from your mirrors. Even if they've sponsored your springs they're fugly!

Thanks! no shame in something that looks good! The springs settled roughly another 1/2, looks mean.

Thanks! No the front grill is stock, it just so happens that the colors match pretty well. and I'm working on the trunk today! Yes, the roof racks are drilled and has 4 separate mounting brackets with two rivets each into the roof.
