What's up d00d's, breh's, brosef's, and brothas!?

Names Evan, I'm 17 and i just finished building my two fooooooty sex. I've done a little posting around and without you guys, my car wouldn't be anywhere near what it is today since I was an effin' ra-tard when I started my build. But enough babbling on, here's my ride.

P.S. the wheels are s***, they came with the car and I'm broke so I can't get anything nice yet. But once I get 17's, I'll go lower

Here's the car as it sits today:

And here's what it looked like when I first bought it:

Check that 4x4 Stance!!!

but anyway I hope you enjoy the car, ohh and I built the thing 100% by myself with the help of more than a few cases of beer and my friend Austin.

Nah, homie... You got that! Grids or P45R's would look great. I'd like to see them in Hyper Black or White on your car...

They rub my coilovers without spacers and their 18x7.5 +42 offset. I mean they do look pretty good and everything but these forums have turned me into a fitment freak, everytime i see a car that's not flush i have OCD issues. I actually bought my girlfriend's dad wheel spacers so his WS6 trans am's Z06 wheels popped out just a tad LMAO!

But none the less, I'm really feeling these wheels:

If your going to go with the orange white or yellow, you're going to HAVE TO get a really good offset and slam your car to pull them off. But the car looks good for now. MUCH better than when you got it

Ohh believe me I know, I'm not getting anything above +12~+15 offset. And once I get 17's I can slam this bishhh to the ground.
