Nice wheels. Now slap on a bodykit and some clear corners, and you'll be set.

thanks guys
Leon,

I've always wondered what 19 or 18 x 9.5 with an offset of +20 or +22 will look like.

Do you/ does anyone think thats possible with a LITTLE bit of camber and some 235/40 stretched tyres? Will it protrude from the guards too much?

Oh gawd! That would stick out about 15mm past the rear fenders and the camber would be too aggressive imo! Say goodbye to tire life.

Painting the OEMs a dark chromium black would look awesome...I have some staggered Chromiums with a stainless lip and it reflects differently depending on the light.

19" Volk GT-V

Forged 2-piece rims, centers have been painted black. Can't see really the details well in the garage but goes well with the red exterior.

Craig, that is the MazdaSpeed body kit.

And milos, your car looks beautiful, I love black wheels on VR8's, and the MS kit makes it look much more bad ***.

^Ok, well the front and side skirts are the MS bodykit. I'm pretty sure the rear is too, maybe they custom did the slots...i'm not sure.

The whole kit is Mazdaspeed. The rear bumper and probably the entire kit is a replica.

^I dont think the front and sides are replicas. You can see the plastic strip in the front grill of the bumper, most replicas do not come with the plastic strip. And the bottom edges are the grey that comes with the authentic kit, if it was a replica, and he got it painted, he probably would have left the bottom strip red.
