Waiting on some new ball joints for the front lower control arms. They should be in tomorrow, and I have the day off from work. The stars seem to have aligned, it looks like I have a date for tomorrow evening.

-fuse.p.s. if you didn't catch it, the date's with my car.

Here you go. Sorry it took so long.





Nice and flush, not spacers or anything. Now it needs to sit about an inch and a half lower...-fuse.

If you're talking about polished wheels having tiny black dots on them, I'm pretty sure that has to do with forging process. I've been polishing these wheels at home, and I've noticed that no matter how much I sand, these little flecks still won't go away. It's frustrating to say the least.

is a member here, cool car by the way

seems like all these wheels may need is low profile tires and maybe a fender pull/roll on the rear

OEM FTW < thats totally going to be my license plate once i get those wheels

all these cars are lookin pretty dope, but i think the math should be done correctly to find proper tires for s13 fitment. for real.

and a drop. every one of these cars needs to be lowered. haha.

oem is def ftw tho.

i like this style of wheel.

Any way we can get some better pictures of them on the car? Also, what size wheels are they F & R, as well as tire specs?

I am definitely going with this style on my vert, would just like to know what size tires would be best so I can keep from rubbing the front wheels when I turn my steering wheel.
