Re: Bored thread

They are 5zigen pro racer open ended and extended. The color is "red", but it looks more of a magenta. I like the way they look, and it brings more attention to the rims because the lugs stick out so damn far.

Re: Bored thread

I'm going to a local college in SA for the first yr probably from slacking off haha. They are scratched up on bottom 'cause thieves who jacked my rims used rocks to hold up my car and were on sideskirts, but you can't really tell...'cause it's on bottom haha. But I forgot what color your car is...so if it's dif, you'd have to repaint em anyway so it wouldn't matter.

theirs a few members who have the same lugs on their cars like s0ltker... He has blue ones and he had rota slipstreams and now hes got some 5zigens. It depends on the rim. I'll admit that they stick out MAD far on my rims, but I am gonna get new rims eventually and its gonna look hotter. They sell regular lugs also, but theirs always work lugs, rays lugs, mugen lugs, and other real JDMass lugs.

Re: Bored thread

Magnesium metallic looks good with bronze. Matt black is that flat black look right?? GT3's look hot, but it depends on whether you want "real" rims or rotas. I would do 16s and probably the 5zigens and than get blue lugs.

Re: Bored thread

no i think that it would look good. Steve had 16 inch bronzeish rims on his until he got jacked...his looked like rota torques. I have 15 inch bronze circuit 8s and they look clean. I really like that 5zigen because it looks a lot like the gram light 57C.

I have a 205/55/15 on my rims. A lot of people get 205/50/15 for a lower profile look, but I think that once I am dropped the wheel gap will look better with a meatier tire...and more meat = better ride. They also last longer.



I bought my rims off of Kenny on this forum. He had the same tire setup and his is dropped. That gives you an idea of wheel gap.

Re: Bored thread

Dont get 15in 5zigs. Thats a waste of money imo, you might as well get them in 16s they will look a hell of a lot cleaner and worth the extra money for that extra inch. 15in are nice if you are going with a low drop like Im trying to get Gabe to do ahah. I wish I didnt get another set of gold rims, cause everyone is starting to get bronze/gold. I want to go with either silver or gunmetal, looks sick on mag met.

Three Six mafia is kind of wack now. Doe boy fresh? wtf is that...song is retarded.

Re: Bored thread

Heres my update:
Last night after going to Summer Bash 2 in San Antonio I got the mod bug a little bit...
-OEM style Ebay yellow fogs
- Gearbox's smoked JDM side markers
- some 04-05 tails from another member on this forum.
My friend also found a buyer for those damn Progress springs that have been sitting in my garage for months.
Still to come:
-I need to get one of those altezza grills
-I am thinking Progress Coilovers, but I cant get any damn input from anyone because I think nobody has em(I've searched all the 7th gen forums).
-Lip kit will probably wait for a while until I can find every piece at a good price. (Type B front, 01-03 sides or 04-05 sides, and Kaminari or OEM rear)

what you should do is pick up some steelies for a couple weeks, sell your rims now and then pick up the 16s when you have the money .

but 15 is lighter though...
