I'm honestly not a fan of those wheels. But the fitment makes it work for me. Props for doin what everyone else said wouldn't work. I always love to see people push the limits. What part of Florida you live in by the way.

This... but I can tell you from now that wide wheels and fender gap look ugly. Get some coilovers first before you even think about going flush.

The wheels themselves are very nice. Black centers with a polished lip is a fantastic look for a black car. However, the wheels quite noticeably stick out from the car, with the tires stretched to fit... both of which look really goofy.

"simple and clean" no more, I'm afraid. But if you're happy, that's all that matters.

New toys are fun. Enjoy them, OP.

You know I respect your opinion 100% my friend, but I have to disagree with you about black faces and polished lips on wheels. I actually think that color combo is rather tacky. It was the the latest tuner car fad 5 or so years ago. On that note, you can also say that stretched tires and poked wheels are the fad now.

Chrome, machined silver, or a high polished finish throughout the entire wheel looks a lot more classy on a black car.

Either way, these are just our opinions. And if we all had the same opinions, all of our cars would look exactly the same. What matters is that this new setup puts a smile on the OP's face.

Well said, essential1. I don't know what today's car fads are for external mods... that's not my crowd. I like stock & stealth.

And I think this picture here is great, particularly since he's kept the chrome window trim. It works for me... until you walk around and see the poke & stretch, then it all goes out the window.

I get it, I really get it, I understand the whole Hellaflush scene. I just dont understand the purpose of it. The original intention of an automobile was for transportation to get to point A to point B amirite? Having your car look good while doing it is another matter, but completely destroying the cars geometry and functionality for looks sake I cant bring myself to do. Im not hating at all OP, dont take it that way. For what it is and what your going for, its sicker than sin, and I respect that. I actually think its pretty good. Just stating my opinion, thats all.

how does it destroy the cars functionality? if you have the car's height that is suitable for your environment...its still functional. if YOU cant bring yourself to do it, doesnt mean others (like myself, are not willing to) if i come off as harsh, it is what it is, i just hate people that are quick to flame what they dont like/have utter disregard for. there are few things i flame off the bat, twentyeggs was one of those situations. other than that, i expect peoples decision, like that of max ride...sexy blue 4th gen thats not slammed on 5.5 gen wheels...f'n gorgeous. i could have easily said..why teh *** you not slammed..but his car is done nicely and according to what he likes, so why have disgust for it. on top of that..reminds me of when that guy got flamed for bringing to the 'table' a VIP table....

the org is like honda-tech

That last set of photos gives a better perspective on things.

I suppose it's only a little stretch, and a little poke.

What's that red thing sticking out of your bumper?

From this angle it looks like the back wheels stick out to much.. form other angles it looks fine. I like the look and sick drop, enjoy your whip with those fresh new kicks on.
