NYC Drift King: Now sitting on ""Work Wheels''

New season new rims. Either you love them or hate them.

No stretched, no nonfunctional tires here buddy!!!

Work Emotions Xd9's
Fronts: 18x9+20 - 245/40/r18
Rears: 18x10+18- 265/35/r18

EDIT: here they are in motion.

I recently just finished doing the fender work to drop it. so I'll post those up when I get the chance to actually drop the car.

I like it but then I don't like it. But then your car is done so tastefully that I like it. I'm confused.

The more I look at these the more I like them. My only suggestion would be black lugs.

Stock camber. I've never touched it. I did roll the fenders and pulled the rear a little bit. To drop it low like the last pic I had to bend up the metal tab from the body of the car on the rear. The plastic tab from the bumper I shaved it off on the rear and remounted the bumper a few inches back from the original location of the tabs.
