yeah please do take pics. I might get those rims this spring due to the fact that the Volks cost way too much

[raiyo]

Those things are ugly. Why'd you buy it? Get rid of it. :p People gotta stop buying the Grids. I don't want them to be as common as the Slips, heheh. I got those on myself, and they look ugly. SO..... people, don't buy em, they ugly. ;)

U ask, I give. Just took some bad angle shots. It's cold and dark outside. No room in my backyard driveway to get a better angle. Yes, my car needs a wash. All it does is rain rain rain lately.

[Btrthnezr3]

Very nice rims...hell, your whole car is sweet! :D

[Whiteboy]

They look great man, you just really gave me something to look forward to! What drop is that and what size tires btw? (Sorry if it's already been said)

the tires are falken ze512 205/50/16 and the drop is eibach sportlines. at the time i dont know if i could have gone with 215/50/16 or even 225's but for now i am going with those. i will probably go wider on my next set of tires. overall i am very pleased with how they look and the ride is quiet. when i had my 17's the ride was noisy, also had nitto nt450's which were shitty when there was a drop of water on the ground. the only thing i do not like about my rota's is the center caps. i think i am going to take my honda ones off of my stockies and paint them the same color as the wheels. make the H red or something. dont know yet, still playing around with the idea.

[ImPo Skyline]

be carefull when using a 225, i tryed a 225 on my 18's and they rubbed the gas fill line. also the camber needed to be -3.5 to fit the tire in the rear. and alor of rubbing in the front.
i use a 215 and they fit just fine with an 18" wheel and a 3" drop.

yea thats why i am asking around to see what width would be good. i think 215 wold be pretty good. 205 is good for now.

w00t!!!

I got my grids today...can't wait to put them on :D < me
