Talking Finally got my rims today *PICS*

Well, I travelled 2 hours to pick them up from another member on the site. They are 17" RS Limited Concept Pro's. Enough talk.....time for the pics.......

BTW.......I will be getting black lugs and painting my calipers black also next week.







Someone also wanted to see a closeup of the wheel gap with my tiens........Should I raise the rear to match the height of the front?


Rear Gap





Front Gap

Hey fly i like the gap you have in the back, is it possible to lower the fornt a little more to match THAT. I don't think it looks wierd/bad as it is now though, so oyu could just leave it

PS - Nice rims man.

I wish I could lower the front some more. But Tein SS are infamous for only going that low in the front.

Damn, it's really coming together there. I remember back when you joined the site and were just a postwhore. Now the car's all grown up... *tear*

Haha, fool ya? Anyway, I'd raise the back a little for daily driving and lower it like that for shows and such. I think the front gap pic looks better coz it goes along with the curve of the tire, but they always like it as low as possible at shows. That's just my two cents.

I'll probably be powder coating them black if I keep them. I really want RH Evolution CP8-R black. But I had to have some rims for a show next week.

They are around $60-90 per tire. I'm sure you can get smaller, but your speedo will be off.

205/40 is the lowest profile without really throwing your speedo off for 17". The ride looks Fly

You should raise the back alittle. You want the back to be high than the front.
