This car will never see black/gunmetal rims, my eyes would be stabbed out and my heart would break...

Scheides, The silved P45's look just right. Black car and dark wheels dont mix well, looks like steelies everytime.

The offset annoys me more than color, I'm afraid.

LOL ... I love black on black/dark wheel look... but to each his own....

Car def looks sexy as is (even if the wheels arent black), that drop is a nice amount, Can't wait to get a ride in it!

Re: beaterX project thread

I think you should sell those p45f's and move on to some p45r's. 18x9.5" ftw!

Remember these rims are basically free at this point, I yanked them off of my crashed evo8 before it was hauled away. The tires had literally like 400 miles on them. I'll consider upgrading sometime after I get the body work done, undertray back on, and the whp issue addressed

Re: beaterX project thread

Thanks guys! Got an alignment today @TheAlignmentGuy.com and the car feels freaking AWESOME! Jeff does all the top cars around here, fantastic guy! Ended up with zero toe and about -2° camber in the front and -1.5° in the back.



Jeff has been known to have a bit of a temper, but he is an awesome guy! I brought him starbucks

Why on earth would I setup a tuning date when my setup isn't together yet It'll be a self-modified version of my stock turbo tune for now, gonna keep things nice and simple.

Re: beaterX project thread

Why not

I usually do that with Shane because he is so damn busy I like to make sure and get a time slot that works for me so I am not going in there at like 10am on a work day, lol.

Fair enough, I can't wait to see some pump gas numbers, that turbo has seemed pretty solid on pump gas.
