i had white enkei or52's in 17's. theres very few wheels that i like in that big of a size... but you pulled it off quite well. get ur sideskirts painted. trust me... it'll be a world of a diffence.

keep up the good work buddy

thanks guys, I went through 3 different colors on these wheels before I ended up choosing white haha. I want to get the jdm itr center caps. does anyone know a cheap place to get em?

do you think I should get aftermarket sideskirts and type R front lip? they have some polyurethane ones on e-bay for like 100$

I cant lower the ride height anymore without totally screwing my tires/feners over so I might as well get a lip kit to add alittle less ground clearance haha

thanks man, I didn't think the white would look good at all so i bought white metal primer and used that to get an idea of what they looked like. I was going to paint them bronze but 17's are too big with bronze it looked weird. I bought those wheels off of Craigslist for 200$ I'm not sure what kind of design they are
