Smile Some quick pics of my wheels/suspension

I was so excited to finally get these on, that I had to take some pictures. They aren't good cause I was in a rush and I didn't realize that auto ISO was on. And yes I am going to get a tint and I'm going to smoke the ambers cause I hate clears.

I lowered it alot, lol. I'd say 1.5in or so. The front is a little bit lower than the back right now so depending on how the alignment goes I'm going to raise or lower one or the other. Right now I have no trouble over speed bumps or driveways.

Ya, I'm waiting for the center caps to be in stock. Nobody has them in stock right now. I have to check with Rishie to see when he is getting them back in stock.

good call with the smoked corners, I think it looks better than the clear...



Not the best quality but you get the idea. I have also slightly polished them so they are no longer that "flat" black.

Looks great as is but black car w/ black rpf1s is just begging for an ugraded brake caliper kit to throw some color into the mix...

I run without a front plate, I think blacked out corners is the least of my worries. Cops around here don't bother me at all. I went to the race last year and this year I had to decide between installing my coils or going, obviously I picked the latter. Besides I'm going to F1 in Montreal in a few weeks, no Mazdas, but plenty of high rpms
