what colour is your car mate as it makes a big difference...

i can get away with a lot more of a sportier rim due to the colour of mine... and thing the rims such as eurolines/SSR vienna's would look mis placed on my car...

Just get the rear down and she'll be right. And if you're not on coils, then yes, it is fucked.
Oh and deknick, great height and fitment, ever considered painting your intercooler black? I reckon it could actually improve the overall look of the car, blacked out Smile


Silver car, bronze rims, 17", as imported. Still. Sad I know.

i will never paint my intercooler black Very Happy haha

and nope, i'm on coilovers, i wasn't able to drive like that, i was barely able to make it out of my street and onto my mainraods, mainly cause anything thicker than a cunthair would cause my exhaust to scrape.

that was mainly for the hell of it for some pictures.

my current ride height is about 6mm or so lower than the black and white picture with trees in the background taken from a direct side view

If you have the 2 tone i dont think you can go past some euroline DH, or work XD9 in chrome. Speaking of which, maybe splash out on some RAYS grams light 57 with the titanium lip, they're the shit.

If you got a kit best to go 19"/20" from the start... I got 18" Work Equip's and they'r just too small especially now that I've gone air

Biggest problem now is that I gotta get all the rest(interiour,engine,paint) sorted out before I can get new rims(3-8K AUS$), it's pissing me of aarghh Mad
