Finally got my new rims. It's a little dirty but id rather post the pics now then after washin n waxin it. SO here they are........ :D

 

Nice but you need a drop BAD

 

yup - springs would make things perfect -

what size are the rear tires? they look HUGE!

 

I love these rims! There ADR M-Sport rims, with 235/35/19 (8.5') up front and 265/30/19 (9.5') in the back. And the tires are Proxy T1s. The car already handles a lot better and it seems acceleration has not suffered at all. It almost feels faster. NOw all i need are lowering springs, MS or RB and clear corners.

theres a thread for a good deal on RB springs in the buy/sell forum right now go check it out

 

Those rims are nice...so is Agoura, CA

I'm checking the springs out SHHHHHH :D

 

Post some better shots. Theyre nice rims, but hard to see on all the angled shots.

 

nice, i just ordered these rims off ebay in 18X8.5 in front, and 18X9.5 in rear. cant wait to get them on. i payed $780.00 all together, how much did u pay.

 

I payed $2600 for the rims and tires n tax n all that. Was that $760 for tires n rims also???

 

No, the $780.00 was for the four rims and tax. They did not come with tires.

 

Are the rims u got gun metal or different ones? Also when r u gona post sum pics?

 

Time to drop it!!!

Might I recommend H&R Springs for the job?

 

my wheels are the same color as yours gunmetal/ hyperblack whatever color they call it with the polished lip but in 18X8.5 fronts and 18X9.5 in rear. I will post pics as soon as i get them. They havent come in the mail yet.

 

Which lowering springs should i use to lower my car?

Should i used Racing Beat, or Mazdaspeed or R&H lowering springs????

Thx for any help, i really need it.

 

They look Huge. You might need to roll your fenders after you drop them, not sure, but from your pictures you might.

 

Sweet. thats it the same set I was planing on getting.
looking good

 

Agree w/ SocioPath.
From the pics, it seems like you will rub? Even it doesnt rub now, I guess after a drop, you might need to roll fenders.

 

Any of these springs will do, but i would go with the tein s tech lowering springs. They seem to be much cheaper than the others.

 

What size are those, also do you think i could drop by and check those out. I am getting wheels after christmas hopefully and wanna see what they look like. 19x10 front and 18x9 back.

 

To Navybeardbb your very welcome to come check them out if u wish!!!

Also, im really confused by what you people mean when u say i might have to roll my fenders???

What does that mean????

Thx for the help again.

Also, i decided im using MAZDASPEED lowering springs.

 

Those look sweet on the velocity red.....good choice bro!!

 

roger that, since christmas is here how about like tues or wednesday

 

Nice!! Clear Corner that puppy!! :D

Rolling the fender simply means you're folding the "inner lip" of the fenders to give more clearance for the wheel/tire. If you feel the inside of each wheel fender, there is this 1 inch of metal that sticks out horizontally in-wards (you could even see from the pictures). If you fold that lip up or "roll" it, it gives you more clearance for larger wheels. Its usually done at a body shop or rim shops.

Someone help me if I'm not explaining it right.

 

Thx for explaining that. So does this mean u can only roll the fenders in the rear wheels??? Because up front u cant roll the fenders im guessing. Thx again for the help.

Also, is it expensive to roll the fenders,cause im guessing thats what im gona have to do?
