Finally someone puting pictures of the Kojin on a FRS online. Thanks! Needs a drop now but otherwise looking good. Would very much be interessted in better pictures, specially with better light showing off the wheels a bit better

Thanks for finally posting pics of these wheels! I'm thinking of going with the exact same setup. Do you notice any handling difference with the staggered setup though, has there been much of a hit to your acceleration?

These are the rims I am looking at getting, thanks for the pictures! We certainly need some better pictures that show off the rim itself. It is very hard to see in these shots.

Still very appreciated tho!

Also good university ;)

I would love to see these rims out in the wild but these pics are so poor and worse still the rims are black.

SkAsphalt 04-26-2013 01:50 PM

the iPhone can take amazing photography, especially in sunlight, just need to know what to do or which app to do post in (hint, Camera+ is a good start)

diddy 04-26-2013 04:52 PM

I'll use my standalone point and shoot camera and take some better pics. Just wanted to get some quick shots out to you guys.

Handling-wise, definitely more grip which I don't mind. It might be a bit slower but nothing too noticeable, car still feels nimble as before.

They look great, especially on a silver car. How's the ride compared to stock?

diddy 04-27-2013 05:45 PM

Don't feel that much difference, might be a bit bumpier because of the larger rim. Bit more tire noise though.

Thanks for the pics!!

Wow, those really look good. Surprisingly good!

I'm also looking at the matte black Kojins for my Firestorm FRS. What do you think? Seems like the black rims are a bit too much for Firestorm?
