The car looks great Sean! A nice drop will definitely complete the car and make it look really amazing.

The tires are 245/40 and 275/40, not too large at all. Get some tire shine on them and they will look great

Rota Torque's 18x9.5 +20 in Hyper Black. The center caps work just fine on the +20 version, as you can see Sean has them installed on the wheels. No spacers needed

Thanks Dan. The pictures really don't do justice at all, I love them in person. I can't wait for my springs to come in. -1" drop all around ftw.

Are those 45 profiles in the back? I think these wheels only look good if they are complimented with a greater than 1" drop and smaller profile tires. Get rid of those eyelids, they take the "clean" away from your car. They only look good on the fast and furious cars.

Once thats done, then I can say your car looks fantastic.

They are 40 in the back. I just ordered the hotchkis lowering springs so it should look better.

As for the eyelids I personally like them for now, but I might take them off down the road when I decide to black my headlights out.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

Very nice!

Keep the eye lids. And don't worry about the tires "looking too tall" - Kumho's have a tendency to do that.


And thanks for the pics of Fort Collins! I haven't been out there in...5 years.

I was thinking about a Nismo V2, but I also want to just go with a carbon fiber CWest lip kit instead.
