I wasn't going to do this, but maybe I'll post the pic with night-shot on. It looks like ***, but at least everyone can see the proportions.

I'm not a big wheel type of guy unless you really NEED that, but it's not my car. Do you have any more pics of the car though because I'd like to see what she looks like during the day?

I don't have any other pics yet. It was kind of a OMFG it's warm enough to wash the car...By the time I found a camera, it was night. I will take some more maybe this weekend...
As for the wheels, they are 18x7" Enkei RS5's. i bought them from Discount Tires (tires.com), and they came mounted, balanced and ready to put on...and best of all, free shipping.
I went with 215/40 Parada-Spec 2's because they fill up the wells a bit better than the 215 35's, and maybe it will take a little longer before I bend a rim.

The wheels do look nice, but I still think they are too big for the Fc. Maybe if the car looked more beefy it would help the looks. Damn, those wheels must slow your acceleration quite some!

anywho, since iu cant edit my post earlier, i cant repath it. but here are some daytime pics. I am ordering intrax springs and tokico struts in a week or 2.
And seriously now...who cares about how fast he car is. NA's are 16 second cars. Can't beat anything but a geo or hundai or something with that kinda time.

It's getting hard to find decent lookin 16's these days. I wish my wheels came in 16's when I bought them, but only 17's. The way I see it, if I could have bought 16's and spent the rest of the money on RB springs my car would look better than 17's and no springs (the way it is now). Sadly, anything over 16's are a compromise.

GP Sports body kit. They make a SWEET S13 kit as well that is similar to the FC kit. Nicest FC kit out there, but super $$$$.
Those gotta be at least 18's on that car.
Anyone care for some CAMBER?!?!

Yeah, for the price of that body kit you could have a set of 16s for the go days and a set of 18s for the show days.
17s look good to me. And I recommend getting Ground-Control coilovers instead of intrax springs.
