Any thing wrong with them? The design looked good, comes with a heat shield, put down impressive numbers on a mustang dyno, and it is wrinkle red.

Thanks. After I get the intake and DP and a pro-tune I'm gonna try and slow down with the upgrades.

I was thinking of doing the Angel eyes, even though I was thinking of something custom so I could get led's in the bumper like Porsche or Audi...

If you want those S6 LED's, let me know. I'm an Audi Tech and get hook ups on parts. I'll get you deal. Those things are bright as hell, even during the day.

Yeah, I've seen them several times on an S6 around town and you are right on, they are bright even in the daylight!

PM me if you can, I've seen these for $300 on eBay... I'm just not sure about the dimensions though, they may be a little on the long side.

Nice work! Yeah, I will have to see the dimensions and see if it will work. And I would probably mount them a little lower, more towards the lip.

What type,size,offset are those wheels?

Just read your journal Paikman.
Are those +29 offset GTR face? They dont appear to stick out past the fenders like Spacemans.

Hi Space man

I really need your help. I love your rims and setup. it is a beauty.

I just got the same rims as you but Chrome, I am not driving STI but WRX S-GT. I order and installed 17x8 37 offset (224/17/45)..now on stock suspension therefore it did not hit the fender.

I wondering if i lower will hit. Please advise you current offset / setup on rim and tire.

or base on what you know, do you think mine will hit the fender if lowered?

Thanks. cheers

There's other guys on here with more knowledge of wheel and tire set-up then me. I'm not sure what your stock off-set was opposed to the wheels you got now...

My experience though...

I went with 18x9 +29 with 245/40/18. I had issues with rubbing at stock height but once I lowered it on the coilovers I got some negative camber and it helped. I also rolled my rear fenders and rubbing is almost a non-issue. I just need the slightest bit of camber in the rear.
