I think it looks good, but it's hard to tell from the pics. When you wash it take some good profile pics and post em!

Sell rims and buy stockies. Then use that money towards a-spec! There's a set of stockies for $150 near me. I've really thought about buying them just to play with different colors haha

I like the wheels-they look fine.

Have you considered taking off the body side moldings?

Alot of you would change your mind if you guys see the car in person. I agree in pictures they look bad. But in person it looks really nice. Black rims look horrible in pics cuz it looks like a hollow black hole. And federal tires are great tires honestly I've been driving on them for about 1500k already and they are not noisy at all. And theyre really grippy in rain. What sucks is the 240AA thread wear.

On your door, the "speedbumps" that run horizontal to your windows

Take them off, then wax the doors, will look much cleaner.

Its held on the same way the badges are held on.
by 3m tape.

heat up the body side molding(BSD) with either warm water or a hair dryer.
then take floss or fishing line and saw.

Be sure to have some goo gone handy.

I waited for a hot day (90+ degrees) parked in the sun for a few hours, walked out, pulled them off. Came RIGHT off!

But you should probably do it the right way, floss and a heat gun, then goo gone, then wax

I have stockies.. But i only use them in the winter.. I like the wheels they don't look bad at all.. Everyone has different taste. Next summer I'll get new wheels. I was looking into tenzo wheels.
