Great shots! The first shot looks great-your tires are blacked out really well.

I hate all the dick riding that goes on around here. His wheels are ugly so I'm telling him. Other cars I love on here.

Hahah, Looks good man!
I could care less what that chode says anyways.
Thanks! Im a big fan of 5 spoke design wheels. My next set of wheels will either be TSW Mirabeau or Vossen CV3's. In a much wider width than what Im currently running, and lower offsets.

Yikes, I am not fan of the black barrels! Also that car needs the rest of the aspec kit!
Haha, I have a tendency to multitask while driving. Drive alot for work, alot of highway driving.

it's making a squeaky sound?
Okay...had to...
Well, it DEFINITELY sounds like rubber so you have to figure out what's associated with rubber AND turning the wheel. The steering endlinks? Is there rubber? Endlinks for the front sway bar, springs seated right? I'm not sure otherwise...you need to jack up and see if it does it under no load...take off rim and see if it does it without the rim...if so, get your head in there and have your gf turn the wheel so you can see exactly where it's coming from.

Also...dude, if you hate the black barrel vossen...have you seen the guy that has "VOSSEN" decals ON the black barrel? Not to talk ish, but man did I despise that look!

Went for a nice trip to Kelowna, B.C. over the past weekend after doing a bunch of maintenance including new front control arm bushings, inner/outer tie rods, upper/lower ball joints, new passenger axle, and a fresh alignment. The car rode like a dream through the Canadian Rockies, couldn't be more satisfied with this car
I find my car to be pretty damn low for being just on Tein S-tech springs

dat KBP
To each his own, but I'm diggin the wheels. Definitely gives the car a different look though, I don't think I could bring myself to ever swap out the stock Type S rims.
The aspec kit w/ the yellow fogs on kbp is really, really nice.

Decided to go back to the Okanagan this past weekend, except this time to Pentiction, B.C.
Really racking up the mileage on this car! Going to be adding another 7000 KM's or 4000 Miles for you americans :P. Heading down to Mexico for a beer, then two nights in Vegas and back to Canada!
Pentiction B.C.!
Just after the Alberta border in the Rockies by Jasper, AB.
And home!

Dude the wheels were no good when I got them and only have gotten worse, the clear coat is peeling on all the wheels, and the lips are soo pitted, I may get them refinished this winter if I dont end up buying new wheels.

Crazy you're driving all the way down to Mexico?!? That has to be one insane road trip.
Btw is your left fog light dead? Mine has been acting up lately. Sometimes one bulb turns on and sometimes it doesn't. Turning the fogs off and back on fixes it. Ballast issue perhaps?
