New wheels!

w00t!!! New feet for my 7. They're used (from rotor vs. piston) 15x7 ROH Snypers in pretty decent condition. The clearcoat is cracking, but that shouldn't be too hard to remedy. They look awesome as they are though! It completly transforms the car. It looks like a newer sports car, and feels more solid. The tires are nitto 450's, 205-50-15. The rears are fine, but the fronts are just a bit wide.




















So what do 'yall think? I love em.

Lower it man!!! Very nice... always happy to see good parts be put to good use. I guess I lied about the tires, the guy told me they were 555's and I never really checked.

Again, extremly glad you like 'em man.

indeed



indeed I will



Do you think racing beat springs will do the trick? If not, or if I really want to, I'll go with some sort of coil-over and camber plate setup. I haven't really decided yet.

If you remember the picture of the car I took the wheels from, it had RB springs on it with tokico blues. It indeed does the trick.

I have ST springs with blues on mine and I'd say it's perfect.
