Default Installed my Momo Fighter 18's, A few pictures to share.

After months of waiting, I finally got some tires from a nice gentleman named kirk on the forum here for my New Momo Fighters. I know the "lip" is very popular and I respect that, but I really like the flush look for my car. It took me two years of hunting to finally find a wheel that I really liked and almost a month to track down a set as they seem to be rare.

The wheels, even in 18, only come in a +42 Offset. I added 4, H&R Track+ 25mm Spacers to the car to bring in a net of a +17 offset all the way around. I am running the stock, track ed bridgestone rubber all the way around.

Overall I am pretty happy with they way they look and handle so far.

Looks good with the spacers. Despite having rims with a significant lip, I do like the "flush" look too, without the lip.

Alot of the Porche's run this look too. You weren't worried about the dam breaking with all the rain the north east is having?

Thanks!!

If that bad boy breaks, all of town will be wiped out!! But its stood for over 50 years and was built to control flooding. They are releaving the pressure by releasing water, hence the plume.
