Horrible Night time pic with cell phone of my new TSW Willows

I know, why bother posting this pic...couldn't help it...will post better pics later in the week when I get a chance.

20x8.5 35 offset TSW Willow with 245/35 tires lowered on HR springs



Ah...edit...here's some crappy drunk pics with my Canon camera...lol

Those look GOOD! Great choice. Some people kill me with their wheel selections for this car

Thanks guys...after putting these on, I'd say the car needs a lip kit now. I'm not totally sold on the A-Spec kit...but at the same time, I don't think I want to dish out the crazy funds for mugen.

They do look good. All you need is an Aspec front lip.

Yeah, definitely definitely need one.

Here's some more pics. I'll just have to wait probably a few weeks until this weather clears up

It seems the side skirts are no where to be found for my color...not like I'm ready to order, but it looks like I'll be out of luck by the time I order a lip kit

Wow. Ever since Nurburgrings were a disappoint on an RL, I have been looking for my next dream wheel (since they're likely only a dream), and I think these look the best that I have seen in a long while. (Within price range that is.)

As for the kit, your gain with the side skirts is minimal, and you will have to remove your mud flaps. Honestly, the front lip with the flaps looks complete IMO.



One more thing, I think the debate between 20"s and 19"s is completely reasonable, but I think this gives good argument to the 20"s. Afterall, the 2004 concept came on 20"s.

How is the ride with H&R + aspec, compared to just the aspecs?

Yeah, these 20's actually ride nicely...not harsh at all. I was expecting a harsh ride.

ichi d: The Aspec springs were toooooo damn stiff, lol. I felt like I was getting beat up while driving around in those...when I was just on regular 17's. I switched to the HR before putting on these 20's and I have to tell you, the HRs are a better ride...but they are not as stiff, so you lose that stiffer performance feeling you get from the aspecs. I was actually surprised, I would have thought the opposite.
