Thanks for the information. I didn't know about the history behind it. It bleeds my eyes whenever I see them. Personal preference of course.

Stretched tires, when used with a purpose is for drifting. The smaller sidewall gives better response when applying throttle to the rear tires when breaking them loose. Less flex in the sidewall is ideal.

Amazing

Do not like.

Looks nice. It's probably just me but the rear wheels look like 18s with fatter tires. while the front look like 19s. But I'm probably mistaken.

kits ok, don't know how I feel about the extra fender cut away behind the wheel. Work Meisters are sexy.

and those are definitely BBS Style 5's.
