a bit of an old thread I stumbled into here..But I just wanna say that those wheels literally made my day. I'm insanely impressed by them.

I noticed they give off the illusion of looking like 19's but they're not, I'm guessing it's how much the car is lowered probably? How much ARE you lowered anyways? They look a bit lower then Stechs, but I could be wrong. But yeah..love the wheels man. If I had a WB, I'd honestly probably copy you..lol. As lame as that sounds.

I'm on the market soon for new wheels but not sure if I want 18's or 19's.. very hard to find good looking 18's, especially when not lowered (I plan to lower at some point). I want to Autocross so thats whats stopping me from being dead set on 19's. I just want something that looks pimp nasty, but is functional. Good set man.

Im lowered on BC racing coilovers and im actually parting out the car =] So if you want to copy me you can have the exact copy

I can ship the coils but for the wheels i need a set of stockers "tires just need little tread since its going to be traded in" so im not sure how that would work out..

how did the car handle with that kind of offset difference from stock? also were your camber numbers to get the wheels to fit or were they also handling enhancers? i'm asking because that's a lovely looking setup and the price is right but i'm concerned about throwing my car off balance were i to go that route.. oh and i forgot to ask about tire wear patterns..
