that's gonna look so sick once you get it dialed in.. i've always wanted a set of euroline dh's.. but they're hard to find in the sizing and offsets i want.

Thanks bro. I love my eurolines bro I got a good deal from a friend that had them on a NSX

so the offset and everything is perfect for me. If you find a set bro pick them up! I love the style of the wheel it self. Hope to have some time soon to get them all dialed in. Might be a few weeks put l post pictures when I get done.

Was trying to load up the new pictures of the mods that I have done to my car. Will try to post it again.

As of today I got new jdm visors, jdm grill, rear window roof wing and just ordered the jdm head lights.

I've pretty much got everything I need for now

Will post pictures as soon as I'm able to.
