Looks fantastic
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Re: NC's Show Off Your Rims!
wow, that looks awesome!
Could you get a shot front on, would be interesting to see how flush they are with the guards.
The offset should be stamped on the inside of the wheel... eg ET45 etc

First time posting on this forum.
Recently I was lucky enough to pick up a 2011 NC2, amazing car, so much fun. Iv started some small tweaks with an Eibach pro spring kit and whiteline front swaybar, I found it to have quite a lot of understeer as standard.
Whilst having the suspension fitted I noticed in the corner of the workshop this set of Wantanabes, turned out the owner was keen to get rid of them, I threw them on and fell in love.
Huge fan of this style and colour combo, this photos actually REALLY doesnt do the car justice how it looks now. Im not sure the offset of them but they look so good, I couldnt be happier.
Looking forward to many years of happy top down driving!

OMG I just have found a new favourite!

I'm not a fan of the staggered offset or NCs as a whole but DAMN your car with those rims looks great!
It's the first time I've ever thought that the NC looked like a natural evolution of the NB instead of a completely new (and bloated) car - you sure you didn't Photoshop it by stretching and squishing it down a bit?
Don't worry about dying, worry about not living!
