Yeah no problem, I'll have something up by tonight. You will def like the way it looks and the attention it brings with the white!

akahenry, let me know if this works or you want some different angles as well. This is before I got a proper alignment with the wheel setup.

This is the look I was interested in (RT5s i assume?)Specs please?
And could you post different angles as i feel you may not have done them justice. (looks like positive camber)

Yep, those are RT5's. Look like 18", 8.5 x 9.5. They are +42 I think for offset. (same as mine)

18x9.5 all around. Offset is +44
(5x100/e44/73)

Using eibach pro kit springs and 255/35/18 tires

The +44 will not clear stock coilovers in the front. So I have 5mm spacers all around essentially making the setup +39 offset

I haven't done a proper alignment but it looks pretty straight in the front with Maybe -1 camber in the rear

Your car looks great. The tail lights, wheels and color all give is a really clean uncluttered look.

when using 5mm spacers, do the spacers just fit over the existing wheel studs, or do you have to modify or replace the factory studs? Also, what vendor did you buy your Rotas from?

How do you like the RCE Yellows? I ordered a set last week. Still waiting for them to ship.

Thanks

Yea you just slip them on then put the wheels on. There's plenty of thread for them to secure tightly

I bought my wheels from Wheeldude.com during one of his sales. And I also added custom stickers I made

RT5 is a great looking wheel, especially so on our twins. Nice choice.

love them, better ride comfort than stock on the freeway (less jarring), more responsive and balanced in the corners and doesn't lower it to much where the front bumping is running into everything.

I love how they look! Are you still on stock suspension? Any issues you've encountered so far?
