here are my rims...

15 x 8 +-0 offset
3.5 inches of dishy goodness :D


FInally i get a good look at this car! Ive seen it a few times but driving in the opposite direction so i've missed out :(. Sexy little car there. Even my dad (who thinks 5's are for girls) thinks it looks hot!

Have you got a garage thread or specs on the rest of the car?

Origin bolt on flares
Aftermarket exhaust
Cusco strut brace
Pod filter

Something different.....

Bought some wheels out of Japan, factory NA wheel, really light, apparently they are off an NA Limited Edition 'VR'. Just had them powder coated black. Going on car soon. May have another set coming if anyone is interested.
