So why not just save the money you used for your Chuki bumper and put it towards whatever else you wanted?

excellent suggestion, but since its only temporary i wouldn't spend money on it. i was gonna trade for one, but then got one in exchange for wiring up type x bumper lights

cool stuff, all jokes aside good luck with your build. You should do a build thread when you get your parts if you don't already have a build thread.

You sure do enjoy stuffing things into places they wouldn't normally fit don't you.

I second that the meisters look the best.

Meisters we're a really heavy wheel. About 27 lbs per wheel, but I loved the huge lip.

4" front and 4.5" rear

Fronts

Rears

The Advan RG-II's I currently have are very light compared to the Meisters and VS-XX! 18lbs a wheel!

I love how the spokes flex. Gives the car an aggressive look.

And yes that is a Greddy front lip spoiler in some of the pics. I used to run a JDM bumper with Greddy lip before I got my hands on the Navan bumper.

I'm impartial to the zenki vs. kouki, 240s own no matter what. but here is my zenki project that needs a heart transplant. Going for the navan look like sunnys14 but I'll only have one set of wheels.
