le Capitan wheel/progression ***** thread

As many of you know, i have a habit of getting new shoes every couple months. Ive been wanting to make some sort of progression thread to share all my previous set ups and future ones, so here you go..

ive pretty much been through every set of aftermarket bumper offered for our car, starting with this one. I had about three of these, all in fiberglass



kept the oem 19s for a few months before picking up a set of these in horrible offsets.

Had about 3 sets of these , with the final one being the most decent set

wish i would have kept the kuruma, unfortunately, it sits way too low for my current height

anyway, from there i moved on a nismo front with archs V1 sideskirts, with VOLK GT-Fs

Nismo front + Nismo sides = best body setup.
VSXX Brombacher Reps (lolz) = best wheel set up.

So when are you getting new front, side, wheels?
