Love the wheels. Can never go wrong with CCW's. Dont have anything against "stanced" cars, I actually enjoy looking at them but I for one will never go that route. Just cant stand any tires under 235/225 width

So Low!

I used to drive a prelude that was so low, I couldn't stick my tennis shoe under the front bumper. Drive slow and go at an angle. LOL!

saw your car at the RC Mega Meet. Once you get it dialed in with the LCA and new coils it will be mint. Car just poked a little too much for my taste but you can't make classics look bad

(maybe thats because I have classics as well..lol)

Don't cry to us when you run into an unseen sewer grate that takes out the entire underside of your car.

Dude I'm planning on going maybe even 15". If an S15 can bull off 15" then and FRS with the right tires can. I think you need to get a thicker tire to complete the locck you're going for. I had a similar 16" setup (replica wheels, though) on my old S13 and once I ditched the stretched tire it looked great.

I have switched to 225/45 all around now and just need to lower it some more. Depending on the weather tomorrow ill finish lowering it and throw some new pics up. As it sits there is a one finger gap compared the the 2 1/2 with the old tires.

They look so small tho. More photos after you dropped it more? That might help the cause.

Nice work.

Not disrespecting/ hating, but your car looks like this to me..



I already think 17's are small, but 16's need to have a decent amount of tire to look right/ normal. To each their own i suppose!
