Maybe could be a little lowered? I don't know.
I'm fine with it though...

Nice, thanks for post more pics.

The gold/bronze wheels is a nice color that I've seen that work well with any FD color...mainly blacks and whites...all except my own color. Heh.

ya i was my car is just too low for those 17x10's in the front, they fit but i have a feeling if i was cornering hard or on the brakes i would hit the fender. so i just got nines for the front and now i really like it. i went with khumo mx tires and they appear to be pretty sticky all in all i am really pleased with the setup thanks for your help andrew

People have been doing it for years.

18x10 + 50 with a 285/30/18 at all corners is popular with the road race bunch. Requires coilovers.

LAN, it looks great. I say if you do lower it, 1/2 inch front and back and its perfect. But it looks mean the way it is.

awesome idea and color contrast. bad execution. try not to position the car directly in front of the tree like that. it looks like the tree is sprouting from the sunroof. and use a tripod if you have caffine hands.

xia0w0ng, nice color combo with your car, wheels and hint of red. BTW, where did you get your floormats done to have the edges trimmed in red....looks like Spirit-R replica but for LHD setup of course.

Looking great!

That's really an 8.5 rear? That 255 looks a little stretched. Looks good though, I really like the color.

Hell yeah, you guys just about have me wanting to paint mine black and get some FN01R-Cs haha. My buddy (AntiVenom on here) has a black FD with those wheels too but he doesn't have as much offset in the rear. He was one of the first to have them actually. I love how they look on your cars too though, damn.

heres an old crappy phone pic i finally got to upload, in the spirit of the fn's. great wheels, sorry to say im moving up to 18s in the rear. still keeping my set of fn's for track stuff and whatnot.



this was my first fit i think, i lowered it a bit more afterwards. pics a good 3-4 months old at least.

i still enjoy this picture even though its shitty and multi-colored

I got a few pics from my engine builders last night. The body might be junk, but they worked some huge miracles under the hood.
