+1. Although, I like the offset, I like the tire stretch, and I like the fact that you are being different. Its easy to slap on volks and look good, its not easy to slap on 20" mustang rims and look decent. You pulled it off.
P.S. if you can be seen around town with your car and be content, theres no reason you should be otherwise on forums.

Let me ask you something.... Are you a body man/ painter?? If you are then you would realize how hard it is to EXACTLY match paint. Especially when it comes down to paining something that is 3-4 years old

So let me get this right.. your piSSy cause I have eyes that can see colors, right???

Get over it.

The car looks beautiful, mine also is PPW & I have had to repaint the hood the drivers fender so I know what you are talking about with the paint matching. Luckily I painted when the car was less than 1 year old, so the color is pretty close.

You on the other hand look like you used the Pearl Ivory color used on the Infinitis for the nose & a$$ end, with the PPW from NiSSan. Still looks nice kinda a nice contrast.

Sorry darling!!!!

We drive nice cars & we pay attention to details, so I noticed big deal.


Maybe you should talk up the 2 tone scheme, they play off each other very well.

K buddy thanks for your useless opinion, but I have a 4 year degree in Auto Body and Refinishing. And have worked in a high end shop for 3 years. Painting new BMW's and Mercedes. I think you are a little out of your league on this one. I understand you noticing the difference on the color. Good job. But you need to understand how hard it is to get a 100% match. No need to show your *** noob.

^

seems like he agrees that paint matching the color is difficult...and just pointing out that it does not match.

it is pretty close though!

I like stretched but realized it's not practical if you like fast. I don't know if they couldn't install right but my friend has some first gen VS-XX and he had 225 or 235 on the 9.5 or 10.5 forget and it popped off the bead with a little spirited driving luckily no one got hurt and the wheel didn't get damaged.

the wheels are not quite aggressive enough with that stock ride height throwing off how aggressive they actually would be, slammed. The tires are stretched out instead of in...that's probably why the car doesn't belong on this thread
