Nice setup and I love those work wheels. Do you know the weight on them?

Lonewolf 07-25-2012 02:41 PM

The car looks great...awesome stance!

FreedE 07-25-2012 02:57 PM

Looks nice. Big difference in fitment front to rear though?

RRnold 07-25-2012 08:29 PM

Jeff Lange 07-25-2012 08:34 PM

Nice to see what it looks like on white. I've got a set of 18x8.5 +38's going onto a whiteout with 225/245's next week. :)

ichitaka05 07-25-2012 08:45 PM

Nice photos!

YukiHachiRoku 07-25-2012 10:02 PM

How does the handling feel compared to stock size?

Looks really nice btw too, I also have whiteout and love black wheels on the car.

Subie 07-25-2012 10:42 PM

The fitment looks a bit off in the rear IMO, but the wheels themselves look great!

I got the tires for free from a friend at the track she had no use for these tires since she sold her 135i. Basically new except for maybe one track day on them. Wheels were $1950 i think.

I havent pushed it other than a bit of riding corners hard in the street and have not felt a terrible effect in handling. There is less wheel spin than stock thats for sure but i have to say i cant report any understeer yet i love how it handles with these tires. I still need an alignment so i will report back after doing this.

Agreed, seems like it is sticking out quite a bit in the rear. Sexy rims though, wish i had the $$$ for some

Thanks again Chris!! These look awesome nothing but compliments from everybody that has seen them, they look much better in person in pics its hard to see the beauty of these specially since they are matte black!! :happy0180:

giraffee 07-26-2012 05:30 AM

Looks great! Any rubbing/clearance issues?

rick 07-26-2012 05:57 AM

Super

Supermassive 07-26-2012 08:24 AM

Gotta say good choice!!! I almost pulled the trigger on these wheels in pretty much the exact same setup, but was gonna wrap them in Hankook RS3's. In the end i think I'm gonna get the GramLight 57 Extremes in semi gloss black with the cutouts everyone loves to hate ;) i wanted the Full gloss but they said they werent doing that color at all, no vader wheels for my white FR-S.

DarrenDriven 07-26-2012 04:23 PM

Another car with the same combo:

Thanks man, i was planning on going out there tomorrow but i am missing my rear camber plates so i dont want to run on a crappy alignment and destroy my tires lol. Will be reporting back to this thread and my track thread. ;)

FRSGT86 07-27-2012 12:11 AM

Looks awesome, nice choice!

FML 07-27-2012 06:41 AM

I agree it looks 10 times better in person though the black really stands out!! :party0030:

RZ86 07-27-2012 12:07 PM

were there any clearance issues in the front before the coilovers?? looks great. i've got a set of 8.5 +38 all round on the way.

denkigrve 07-27-2012 02:34 PM

Looking good dude. Jealous of the garage, but you're in Texas, everyone there has one. I miss Texas, a place where a decent house isn't 1million+

Rear camber plates? Those won't work in the rear because of the setup. You'll need the whiteline bolts or some control arms to correct any camber in the rear. I'm personally looking at getting some of the cusco rear adjustable control arms for my fine tuning adjustments for rear camber unless another company has something better.

denkigrve 07-27-2012 02:36 PM

Ohhh ho ho. I see an AFE box on the shelf. Is that the Takeda intake?

scottman 07-27-2012 04:07 PM

cute dog. :p
