I don't normally like black wheels, but that looks awesome. Very nice!

Enkei PF01 18x8 +40 with 225/40/R18 Hankook Ventus V12. Suspension is stock so far. Definitely going to have to roll the rears when I go with coilovers.

I'm AMAZED and CONFUSED how Eibach Pro Kit springs can drop the car as much as yours looks....it's only 0.8f 0.7 rear....the pic looks the same as my H&R's...

 

[charlessss]

^^ dude seriously, when I had the prokit they were definitely not that low.

 

[Jon MS3]

Thanks for the nice words guys!
i think the shadows might be making it look decieving lower, but its definately not quite as high as some eibach prokit ms3's i have seen before

I think it is all tied together with the black. looks freakin awesome. I need to paint mine black too soon.

 

[Jon MS3]

thanks man. i wish i had done it way sooner. was debating if i would eventually buy wheels, but felt a sudden wave of fiscal responsibility and finally just painted them. did it all in one morning. GO FOR IT!

Anyone running TRMotorsports C2's? That's a trick question, because I know the answer is yes. I just want to see a photo with the car sitting. Not in motion on a track.

What do you use to paint the calipers? And where did you get the stickers?

Nice wheels too btw, I like the black with the CWP.

That is G2 Caliper brush-on paint..i did the first layer with the crappy brush that was included, and a 2nd layer with a paint brush of my own. it went on a lot nicer and even. the decals are from vinzdecals.com. you can custom make your own in a the "caliper decals" section and they have that specific font. for $10 you get a lot! several curved ones and smaller straight ones for the rears.

can't really see, but heres a closer shot of the rear caliper

Thanks for the info. They look awesome! I just found myself a new project for when it warms up a little more.
