    Finally got some proper pictures, not to be a post whore to those who have already seen them but they took four months to arrive from Japan and I love them. :D

    They're Advan RS-D with Yokohama Advan Sport tyres. Huge thanks to BennyC who I annoyed the hell out of over offsets and such. :)

    I think it's an illusion due to the height difference between the rear bar and skirt. Coz everything's black it doesn't define the shape of the wheel from the shadows either

    They're 18x10+35 & 18x9+35

    The rear could be lowered a bit but spacers... I have to draw the line somewhere. :)

    Nice choice there Alex! Your car is starting to look really sweet now.

    I'm McLovin' it :zlove:

    Time to repaint your calipers though... or just get a big brake it to fill the bigger wheels!

    My rears are calc'd to 18x10+32 and used to poke like that. Damaged the guards driving home as it was.

    HIGHLY recommend the articdragon newspaper method of getting flush.
