Nice wheels.

 

Very nice! Have you put any wheels wax or anything on them to keep the brake dust from sticking?

 

Wheels look awesome. Love everything on the car BUT the cf gas door

 

The wheels look very nice with the blue.

 

Wheels look great, nice job.

 

not enough poke for the amount of stretch I think. But blue on white is nice

 

Wheels look Great! No Aspec looks good too! Have any front shots?

 

White on blue looks good. Nice wheels. Do you have more pics?

 

wheels look great on there. get some spacers though make them bitches flush

 

awesome wheels. Looks sexy!

 

Wow, that third and fourth pic look great, shows off the nice bright side of that paint wheels look nice too! Good luck keeping them clean!

 

looks pretty good man good job. keep your car clean like that. looks awesome just like that

 

very nice, love the color combo

 

Love those wheels on a blue TL.

 

Not entirely a fan of the CF fuel door but DAMN!

The white-on-blue wheels make up for it

 

Thx..I just might consider removing the CF fuel door

Thx...I do too

Thx..Was also considering painting the brake calipers blue, but I think I'll stick with red for now

Thx...I do wwhat I can
Yea, the sun was shining directly at it. ABP actually looks a bit darker most of the time. White is definitely going to require extra care, but I'll manage

Thx

thx...might get spacers next year..perhaps 10mm or so...but will definitely require rolling fenders

Thx..I have more pics...I'll try to have them up sometime

Thx...I have some front shots as well, but w/out a-spec, it looks incomplete

I wanted to go lower on the offset, but didn't want to deal with fender rolling at this time. Even with the current offset, if I dropped the car just a bit more, the fender would tear up my tires. I might roll the fenders next year and install some spacers.

Thx

thx

Thx. CF gas door was an experiment. I can always take it off.

Thx. I was thinking of applying Armor All wheel barrier, but didn't know how well it works. I just use a wheel cleaner with wax, and it seems to work ok

Thx

 

Reminds me of VC123's car eh?

wow, that's awesome. great find bro . it's very very similar indeed. however, a few differences:

vc123: rbp, a-apec kit, Emotion CR-Kai, 18x9.5+38, 18x8.5+30, 235/40r and 225/40f

Me: abp, stock(no a-spec), Emotion CR-Ultimate, 18x9.5 all around (+30,+38), 225/40 all around

I love how the a-spec kit completes the look of the car. Very impressive. Thx for sharing the links

 

yo don't paint the brake calipers blue. sticks better on red

 

SO clean.

Lose the CF gas door and you'll be

 

White on Blue looks sick!

 

LOVE LOVE LOVE white wheels!
