Few pics of my LR Coupe
#17
hello everyone,
thanks for all the kind comments. My future plans are to get some spacers but for now, i have a really beefy tire in the rear which doesnt allow me to get spacers just yet. Im running a Kuhmo 285/35/19 in the rear... sidewall is HUGE... when these tires go bald, im going back to some stretched toyos with 20mm spacers all around...
anyway, right now the car is dropped on 350z sportline springs. No other suspension mods for now.
The wheels are Racing Hart Evolution J8 Pro version 2
19x9.0 front +30
19x10.5 rear +22
i gotta double check on the offsets though...
I do have more pics, but these were taken/edited professionally, the rest aren't as good looking... I'll see if i can find some and post em up.
EDIT: Here are some pics of the car in the daytime and some when I went to the dyno a few weeks back. All these pics are unedited...

I like a setup with a lot of rubber, to effectively put to use. Personally, I think it looks great the way it is now.
Lots of people are jumping on the "stretched tire/huge offset" bandwagon at the moment. Some people pull it off well, and it looks really good. Others look like trash. Almost like a mail order set of wheels that comes with the smallest tire possible. I remember seeing some dude with like, almost negative offsets, and a tire so stretched that the edge of his lips protruded half an inch from the tire. To me that just looks like garbage. Not only is it ugly, it's grossly impractical. Not only will minimal sidewall/width decrease your ride/handling, it's an excellent way to screw up a good set a wheels on a bad pothole or curb, imo.
Just saying, your car looks great now. "Aggressive/stretched" is a cosmetic look only, and only applies to people that are aware of it, and like it themselves. Maybe some spacers in the rear, for a little more flushness, and you'll be g2g.
