According to Rishie they're part of the batch being machined now so supposedly it'll be another 3 weeks till finished then shipment. Likely not till the 1st week of May, 2nd week being worst case. Was hoping to get them before May to get all my mods done but looks like I'll have to put my new suspension on my stockies until these come in.

Brice are those f14's in white?? If so did you have them custom painted or powder coated? Id love to have f14's in white.

Damn sexy evo there

edit: btw how do you like those hancook v12's. I'm thinking about picking up a set as my next tires, still hesitant as they are still sorta new.

Yes they are F14's in white I had them custom powder coated white.

I have yet to really push the tire with the V12's on the street. shoot me a pm in 2 weeks or so and I will let you know my thoughts because I was between this tire and the Kumho XS which I have on my 8 which I absolutely love.

The white looks great btw, I have the stockies on my VR8 painted white and looks good to me. Some people dont really like white wheels but I think it looks great, esp when clean haha.

Yeah I will shoot you a PM in a couple weeks, I'm stuck on the v12's or the Kumho SPT's. The v12's have a nice price at $135 on tirerack so thats calling me instead of the $155 for the SPT's.

Angel your car looks great, rims set it off wonderful.
Apparently I shouldn't expect my set before May, the wait is so long, I ordered mine back in February.

I think the owner of the car went really modest with the tire. I think he could easily pull 275's or hell, 285's w/a roll and possibly a slight pull.

I'm also really diggin' the new centercaps

Hmm... wondering what color wheel would look best on a BB...

I'd like to have the gold, but don't really want to pay extra ( I want the 18's). Black on black isnt really my thing... gunmetal?

I havent found any pics of these wheels on a black car

Love the wheels, but looking at that Evo really pisses me off! The tires are not nearly as wide as they should be. You see way too much of the rim and it ends up looking like an abortion to me.

Do what Atilla said...throw some wider tires on there and you'll be sick sexy.

Ya totally agree. That's the Forgestar Sales Manager's EVO X. He didn't think the 275's would fit but there's gobs of room. I've got a buddy with 18x10 +15 on his EVO with 275/35/18 and trimmed rear fenders.

Thank you, sir.

Love the way these look on the RX8. God, that blue 8 is pure sexzies. I wish my modding goals were a little less ambitious so I could afford a set.

MORE PICS PLEEEEASE!!! (Hey, I can dream)
