multiple work wheels fit the bill. tons of sizes and fitments.
$$$, but that's how this goes. genuinely deserves a set of $3-4k wheels imo.

good work so far. bite the bullet. you're so close.

yeah it will be a few months, but I already have a set of 305/25/20 Pirelli P Zeros in the garage waiting... I roll 255s up front already anyways.. so I should be fine.

Youd really be surprised how sick it realy looks w the wheels it has now.. i have about .75 in of gap... so Im gna roll these for now, but Im sure when the bug bites for new stuff ( next year) it will be a set of fat wheels.

Hey keep me posted.. if anyone has a friend selling something that might fit my offset, send em my way.. i dont mind rolling used wheels..

I tell you your body parts and hood fitment is point on, I notice details such as those. Did you put spacers on your wheels yet. If so, I think your cars deserves a lot more aggressive wheels. This is coming from a axis wheel owner.

Default hood wrap.

yeah wrapping the hood will be sick, but i think im going to have a German eagle crest cut out of the same black.. the size of the entire hood.. that will be the only graphic element of the car.. prob just cut thru around the vents as well.


As for offsets, the reccomnded set up is 20x 9.5 +18 front, and 20x11 -18 in the rear.

I would like to run a wider rear tho.. at least a 12 in wheel.
Im not ooposed to running a spacer.. i got good hub centric ones now.

BUUUT if im going to spend cheese, yea.. theyd need to be multipiece and fit w out spacers. No sense buying nice wheels that I stillahve to MAKE fit.

WHeels i like? Work VSXX w the gold centers, or Forgestar f14s.. any full mesh style wheel, etc.

again, cant afford it now for another 5 months or so w Christmas comming up.. but just keep your ears open if someones you know ends up selling some crazy offset wheels.

and yes i have spacers on now.. and yes the fitment is DEAD on accurate.. not a sinlge gap.. ANYWHERE.

Han at Intense Motorsports finished up the car himself ( until like 4 AM the last night etc) .. nipped it up and engineered a lic plate light etc too.

We still need to repair the gas door solenoid etc but in terms of fit, its totally gangsta.



I will get some real pics put together soon.. these have been quick walk by passes w my cell ph camera.

Looks great. the LEDs in the bumper matching the headlights are a nice touch.

The whole car flows... so aggressive but it all makes sense... really can't wait to see the wheels on the car!
