that first pic looks really good i like the stance. TBH i liked your previous colour. The gunmetal complemented the nordic green better.

Gunmetal was rad but silver looks clean too! I'd say silver is a little more subtle and less aggressive than GM, but both flow well. Change is always nice!

Sean's 8 defintely looks great. On MS kit now, no?

Aero is almost done and should be sprayed in time for Wekfest but still trying to figure out my fitment. 11.5 ET21 is perfect up front, but a hair too much in the back. I feel 11.5 ET23 would be perfect, but this would require an 8mm spacer, thus extended studs in the back. I'm probably going to settle with ET26 rear and playing with camber for best result.

Haha only 2 sets, nothing crazy.

Yeah, I posted those pics here a while back too. Just threw them on zilvia to see what else is out there. Work Schwert SC2's, Leon Hardirrit Gral's, or Weds Kranze Vishunu will be my next multi-piece set I think

If you'd like to donate your Work's after you get your new wheels, I would humbly accept

Works would be sent to paint, then become my everyday set, while the Advans would be my track set.

Nice Tilt, can't wait to see the new Aero! Do you plan to get that debt fixed on the side? How do you even get a debt like that, I forgot how?

Well I spotted your twin Dlum (dents), seems like maybe he chose lower ride height v.s. Having side skirts on? He did get the full Ings kit, no?
