UPDATE on car pics, 18x8.5 G Forces...

kessler89 · 02-28-2008, 08:53 AM

rota haters can leave now, ordered these almost 3 months ago and they're finally here, getting some hankook RS2's mounted on them tomorrow, standby for on car pics
they're charcoal grey, they look alot darker than they look in these pics

here they are on the car, i love the way they changed this cars personality

that's the best i can do right now, my shop doors are frozen and there's 2ft of snow in front of them

Why do I have to leave.

it'd be better to say "please don't post mean comments about my wheel selection"

what size tire are you going with?

TheLimitedProject · 02-28-2008, 01:05 PM

K, leaving.

Jk man - congrats on the new wheels.

***Szumita*** · 02-28-2008, 01:09 PM

i like those.

where did you get them from?

TheHammer · 02-28-2008, 01:43 PM

I actually like the color that came out in the pic. I could see those on a flat black STI.
Def waiting for pic's.

Good luck

what ET ?

SD 05 STi · 02-28-2008, 08:23 PM

judging by the sticker, i'm guessing it's +48.

kessler89 · 02-29-2008, 09:09 AM

bumpppppp wheels are on the car now

pics added to first post

to those that asked, yes i got the rings, also got centercaps, i'm debating on weather or not to run them, i'm not real big on the huge "R"

edit, tire size is 235/40, i wanted to go wider but for the $ i went with these, if they made the RS2 in 245/40 i probably would have gotten them but i think these tires will provide more than enough grip
