New rims on my MSP! (Part 2)

[Rush]

The weather today turned out gorgeous .. so I cleaned up the MSP this morning and took it up into the mountains to try to get a semi-decent photoshoot.

And now that I got the chance to actually play with the new wheels/tires .. all I gotta say is wow. I couldn't get the ECSTA MX tires to squeal no matter what I did. I honestly think the ONLY way I could get those bitches to make any noise would be if I took a corner fast enough to the point where I'd flip the whole damn car over. Excellent grip. I didn't notice anymore road noise, in comparison to the stock Potenza's -- but then again, I never really pay attention to that much in the first place. If anyone else has any questions about them, just ask! I'm more than happy t'help out.

And of course, now that I have some better shots of the new rims .. feedback is appreciated!

Oh, and if there's any repeats in photo .. angles, or whatever you want to call that, my bad. I couldn't remember the type of pictures I'd already taken, and I'm too lazy to sort through the shots to sort out any repetitions, haha.

Looks good, but the window stickers clash with the dark mean look of the car. Howzit ride??

Haha

The car looks great. Now put in a CF Grill!

I agree about the stickers clashing, but its not my car, and if you like it thats cool with me.

The tires look great too, they have an agressive look to them.

I will have to look into those when my Potenzas where out.

these wheels are beautiful ... nice looking car ... take off stickers, lower it, cf grille, cf eyelids and cf hood and car is PERFECT

Lose the stickers and the taillights, and it looks great.

Not trying to Thred jack here Rush, but we look very simular despite the dif. design of wheels and I have no CF tail lights.

Haha, yup -- very similar. Are those Konig Holes? I was actually gonna buy a set of those, but found the Motegi wheels instead.


And yeah, I hear what everyone is sayin' about the stickers, and some of them (I'm not sure about ALL of them yet) will definitely be coming off when I move for the summer. The CF tail lights stay, tho'.

But the MSP's gonna look pretty different by the beginning of May -- if all my plans actually come together. By then, I should have on the Gemini reverse-cowl CF hood, CF grill, CF eyelids, and CF mirror covers. And I'll have the car lowered by then, too. Can't wait!

Damn we are going to look so alike because those are all my plans as well for my car!! and my Rims are Rev model 1's 17" just as nice as the konig's but I only paid $400.00 for all four rims and the color of the rims is almost identical to the color of my car.
