Clean car for sure, and the drop is an improvement. Not sure about the 20's in either design or the size of the tires, but I do like the offset look with the fenders.

Keep on modding

Haha

Next mods are probably some fogs, I need new motor mounts not really a mod but on my to do list, after that though I'm looking into headers hopefully and then work my way up to the whole tuning thing, I have your tuning thread bookmarked its marvelous :thumbup: and I'm looking for a dealership here in chicago to advance the timing.

Yea bigger rims and smaller tires, I wanted to go for a different look I'm sick of seeing the same old. They didn't seem that heavy though seemed the same weight as the 18" motegi ff7s that I took off, and car still launches and picks up just as quick as it always did.

Yea my wife didn't want to be in the pic and I didn't notice when I took it, so I had to black her out.

Edited: Because of horny freaks on the org

Yea I've been preaching on the org how these sedans can pull off bigger rims but everyone isn't convinced so here it is now I had to do it. I thought about se tails but idk I kind of like the red tails keeps me different then all the other black se's. You probably can't tell in the pics but the tire is a cm away from the fender any lower I might tear my fenders up, but coilovers are in the future so we'll see

Man, this Max is sooo clean, if you tinted the front headlights that thing would look evil.

not really feeling the rims, but once yu like, thats wat counts. Apart form that, i would add some tinted SE tails, a lil bit lower and a lip kit.

I have mixed feelings about the rims.. They're a little too big for my taste I think.. It helps cover the wheel gap but you're not closer to the ground lol.. I agree with someone that said get SE tails but your choice if you like being different.. Are your front windows tinted differently than the rears? (Referring to picture #5)

Overall your car looks pretty clean, keep it up. And like you said, it's different than most on here which is a good thing.

I think it looks good. I usually don't like rims over 19", but I may be changing my mind now. One criticism I have is that it needs to be lower.

Looks clean but I'm not a fan of the style or size of the rims. 19's with a full lip kit, AE'd headlights and SE tails would be perfect.

Thanks, and 40 was softer to be honest with you.

Thanks, I know a lot of you guys aren't into big rims but I am and I'm not trying to get any lower to the ground because its my DD and in Chicago here we have potholes the sizes of ditches!.

No passenger side window was broken into so it has no tint that's all.

Headlights are already AE'd man.

Yeah it's slightly bent plus angle made it more pronounced, like I said these potholes here in Chicago are a b!tch!
