Post Pix of my VR Versus rims!

Hey guys,

I finally installed my rims and took pix.
It was really gloomy today... so the pix didn't come out right. I'll take more pix later when it's sunny!

Follow the link here. Just to give you a taste of how the rims look like, this is a close up look of the rim.

Good choice! Versus wheels are sweet (I have the same size & offset as you but diff. model). Pretty bold going with the Gun Metal but it looks cool. Now you just need to eliminate that wheel gap

Yes, they are 18" rims. I don't know why everyone keeps saying they look "small".

I already ordered H&R OE Springs from Snook today. Can't wait to get them.

The gunmetal color gives it a really sporty look.

also, they might look small cuz they dont really have that flat spot where other wheels have (the place where the small rivots are on 3 piece wheels)

just a thought.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

I forgot to mention in the original post that the next mod on my list indeed is some lowering springs. The huge wheel gap is an eye-sore. However, I am not willing to slam my TL since I will be hauling many ppl in the car often. I want my car to look nicely and handle well, ofcourse; however, I'd like it to be practical and drivable with *ease*. Currently, I'm planning on getting H&R OEM springs. Subtle drop that the springs give might be the look I'm after. We'll see how it goes.

The mods on my current list in the order of MY priority (This is just MY priority so don't you start with me on this! )

Lowering Springs (H&R OEM?)
Inspire Tails
PIAA 1700X with Inspire Fog Switch
Mugen Exhaust
Mugen Grille or save $$ & custom make a grille myself
AEM CAI or just a replacement filter (Still debating)
Comptech Header
