Default New *updated* pics of my STI6 .....

Having bought this a month or so ago - My car has been off the road for a few weeks now whilst i got on with my 1st round of mods...

I had my brakes refurbed, new grooved discs, kevlar pads (thank you Mr Godney) and some shiny new wheels (although i dont think i actually like them now!!!) Im hoping once i lower the coilovers the car will sit better into the tyre?? Either that or I will be putting some new wheels on my shopping list!lol - what do you think???


Car before


car now...

(pics to follow when i have purchased some new wheels!!!!)

Honestly? What were you thinking swapping your wheels for those? Looked great before, looks nasty now.

You did ask!

Clean looking car, but honestly, I would have stuck with original wheels unless something wrong with them

Maybe if the car was a tad lower and the wheels were 19' it might pull it off, much prefer the original look though.

I do agree with you by the way, i guess i was hoping that when i lowered my coilovers it would make it look better...

but you hit the nail on the head im thinking - theyre not 19's!!

They looked good before i put them on the car i might add!!

Ha ha - i cant deal with this anymore!!! DELETED!!!!!!!

You guys are just so hurtful at times yno!!!
Surely theres a nicer way to tell a man that you dont like his wheels rather than...

"My eyes are hurting looking at them!" OR

"those wheels luk ****e are you 17 or somthing"


And why is it its not possible to delete the whole thread may i ask??? I cant even change the title!!!!
