The side profile looks great, but when you go 3/4 view, the spokes stick out too much for my taste. and i think the stretched tires dont go too well on this face design. especially when you cant slam your car all the way cuz its maxed out. stupid GCs... i may get actual CO this summer to slam it.

Excuse the picture quality as i didnt set the white value or change my last settings.









i want to pull my fenders out as much as i can... doesnt look right.

not bad... i like them from 3/4 better than straight on. think you got a little too ambitious on the width/offset but i know how you like your poke. 7 out of 10. pretty good.

the offset decision is fine in the rear. but the front looks like *** and being 8.5" doesnt help either. Right now, im not satisfied. im gonna give it a month or so and see how im liking em. if it doesnt change, well im gonna sell this set and grab a different set of wheels.

my groundcontrols are maxed out in the front. total weaksauce. the rears have about 1/4" more left in threads. coilovers this summer perhaps... unique as in idontwanttotalksmackitlookslikeass-unique?? cuz i think it looks like *** lol.

Side profile looks great. I thought I was on the fence with how the face flares out but I like how it looks in the back. I don't like how the front wheels look. Either something with the width, stretch, wheel size or the drop or all of the mentioned. They look like 18's up front. Maybe if you slammed the front down or got more stretch it would look better.

You are right, that stretch does not flow with the wheels...

Cure? Slam it another 2-3 inches

I think it has potential though...

I think this shot is sexy

But I am with yeah it is something about how the wheel sticks out that makes me scratch my head. Darn I have to see these on a 5th GEN before I blow the cash.

yeah you guys are right. the stretch just plain doesnt work. well im gonna mill down the hub so the front wheels sit better. Theres a lot of meat off the hub I can take off. I may get a tad meatier tires in the front if I do. then coilovers and mad camber it. so you cant tell too bad. but yeah its got SOME potential...

i know what your saying. one of the reasons i was hesitant to put the hr2s on my was because of how the spokes poked out past the lip. at the same time i saw them on a gs from japan and they looked sick. i wouldn't give up on em yet, give the fenders a nice pull and get your stance on point. then if you dont like em switch it up.

I'm on the fence about them.

Certain pictures, I like... others, not so much.

Plus I am real picky about multiple spoke wheels.

Damn! I love that profile shot! Not trying to be on the bandwagon, but I do agree on the stretchiness of the tires. There's only so much you can pull though and I dont think it's gonna be enough. Nonetheless... +1 on CO and m4d camba~! Isn't the back a little too aggressive? Its poking out like 5inches.

the rears do poke a little much but decent. the front pokage looks terrible. i am defintely going to mill down the hub to about +25mm. now when i had my Works, that poke was PERFECT. damn talk about a downgrade...

but talking about pulling, yeah i can only pull so much but that might make the difference. i do get slight rubbing on big freeway dips in the rear but not so much in the front.

maybe. it's all up in the air for now. I'm going to mill down the front hub to a higher offset and see from there. but these wheels are starting to grow on me...

Yeah meatin up the front tire and camber it out a little and lets see how it will look. I am thinking that your side view will improve dramatically. Leave your back wheels alone I think there fine as is.

I'd be down. I was going to say chino hills but I tried it for the first time and my gf's dad handed my *** to me with all the climbs... so maybe something else.

I think you need some real coilovers though. You are low but if you closed up the gap a little more i think you could give the illusion the rims are more flush.
