Agreed. 1" higher ride height with 1" smaller wheels would look excellent and well-balanced.

I wonder what coilovers are on there...or if they simply torched the springs. Nevertheless, its interesting to see that ride height achieved in real life. It gives me hope for decent compression travel geometry with a slightly-lower-than-stock ride height.

I'm with the rest of you, wheels are too big and the car is too low. That said, I know they were just trying to push their product so I get it. The Homura 2x8GTs on the wall look way better too.

I'm not a fan of hellaflush either, I guess we'll see this style once the car goes on sale.

Damn, you guys are a tough crowd!

It's on display and if it had those wheels at either stock hight or only 1" lower, people wouldn't pay that much attention. I think it looks good and aggressive!

Yeah that's true - gotta make an impression for the show.

Do you guys like the brighter or darker wheels? I prefer the brighter ones.
