Well in my opinion I don't think it looks that bad, he has already stated that he is going to widen the front.
All it needs is an aggressive kit and I think it would look 100% better, but I have a feeling he is not finish with it so we will all have to wait and see..

You can have your opinion whether you like the car or not but the whole point of having aggressive wheels/stretched tires is for the LOOK. End of story. And if you like function over form/dont like setups like the ones posted previously then you came to the wrong thread.

Why? Because that's the angle I think it looks best at.

I won't lie, great fitment is awesome, but to a certain point, a car stops being a car and starts being an overly-carefully-driven garage queen. By that, I mean the owner must sacrifice driving style in order to preserve parts of the car.

^^i was referring to the extent he went to in order to fit those rear wheels, im sure he already knows how drive that car, because his last setup required just as much attention to drive
