After hearing my car while my dad drove it, I really want to but my good camera is being fixed , but Canon is doing it for free so it's cool.
Anyways, pics.First, the simple stuff.Swapping rear hubs for 5 lug is easier than sneezing, but getting the nut off the rear axle can be a bit tough.So you use the special patented breaker bar + car jack technique that I use, it rocks.After this, you just undo the 4 bolts holding the hub, I used a mix of breaker bar, wrenches, rubber mallet and my handy tire jack to get some of the stubborn ones loose.Doing the fronts were okay, just took a long time. No pics of doing the front.
Anyways, this is how my car looked before. Dirty stock SE wheels haha.And now.Yeah yeah I know, wheel gap.Before, the gap was 2 inches from the top of the tire to the fender.On the same wheel, after the swap, the gap is much smaller.I shoulda measured from the top of the sidewall or something because that's what makes the gaps look the way they are in my opinion. I don't know.
Looks good in person, of course it doesn't look like those awesome S13s we see in the "Best looking S13" thread, but it's my daily driver and I'm fine with it.
I saved the worst picture for last, it's blurry and the lighting sucks.
