Man I really like those rims -- one day I will switch over to them. Would it look just as good with 17" rims - dont want to get into the tire cost

Z'd Up May 11, 2005 07:40 PM

Eh brah - like the rims.... Actually IMO the gap does not look too bad, but the tiens will add the finishing touch to "the look"...

I'm trying to figure out where you took the pics.... from the the hill in the back ground and the fact that that street is two way - looks like somewhere between Moilili and Kapahulu....

Z Shadow May 11, 2005 07:44 PM

Looks good

I've never seen them on a Lemans Sunset

Sweet

showstoppertk May 11, 2005 07:56 PM

sluggo- I kinda don't think 17's would be that great. I think you need at least an 18 to fill out the wheel well, I would have gone 19 if the cost wasn't so much higher. plus I wanted to run a 40 series tire instead of 35 with all the crappy roads we have here in Hawaii.

zd-up- guess you're from hawaii huh? livin in socal? yeah I took the pics near my place in makiki...sorta near punahou.

sluggo20031 May 11, 2005 09:05 PM

Thanks was thinking that too == well back to work I go to make more money

TheInVertKING May 12, 2005 06:11 AM

looks good but the tire itself has to much graphics on it for me... when i look at those pics im like "whats on those tires???"

:icon39:

showstoppertk May 12, 2005 12:47 PM

yeah...the tire graphics are a bit busy, but those are what came on the rims when I bought them. I'll probably go with something different at the next tire change.

taurran May 12, 2005 01:43 PM

Wheels look good. Rainbow on license plate does not. :D

showstoppertk May 12, 2005 03:08 PM

taurran-yeah...kinda sucks having the unofficial "gay" symbol on the license plate, but what can you do right?

JDMFairlady21 May 12, 2005 04:23 PM

damn nice pics... if you dont min me asking, how does the JIC exhaust sound? i really am thinkng about getting those and curious how much louder than stock is it... any sound clips?

showstoppertk May 12, 2005 05:32 PM

jdmfairlady21-thanx...I don't really have any sound clips, but I can tell you the sound is awesome, very different from the typical aftermarket exhaust setup. its a very euro, sport-bike sound w/o any of that extremely loud fart can noise. its pretty quiet just driving around in the low rpms, but it's super difficult to not want to rev the engine just to hear that sound (especially in combination with the whistle of the intake). its also pretty stealth...it looks stock, but anyone who knows their Z will realize its not.

Z'd Up May 12, 2005 08:29 PM

Yah, living in the Bay Area - Santa Clara now.. I used to live on Alexander and also Kinau Street. I miss Grace's Inn mix plate!!!!

The rims really look good on your LeMans...

Can you do us mainland folks a favor and take some pics by the beach after you put on the Tiens (heck we'd be happy with shots from Sand Island) LOL....

showstoppertk May 12, 2005 09:07 PM

Z'd up- oh yeah...I live on alexander st now. I'll definately get you some beach shots next time I get a chance. maybe somethin near sandy's or around there....
