i've dropped front 2"
and changed wheels & tires front; 225/50R17 on 17x8 rear; 245/45R17 on 17x8 http://lh3.ggpht.com/_V7qa_5pfXNo/S2...0220101513.jpg |
Looks about right in the front, to me. Back might come up a smidge, or run taller rubber back there
|
New look
Looks even better Ozgur!
Interesting how much a change of wheels can affect the look of a car. The lower ride height in front helps a lot too. Now get it out of the shop and take some better pictures :) |
you are 100% right about effect of wheels&tires to look
my plan for picture is also @ outside of the workshop but, i could not make it, because of heavy rain Quote:

Ozgur..........
i like the other wheels better........ but thats why i have them on my car. |
i also prefer 15" torque thrust, fia and halibrand
but, my torquethusts are 2nd hand because of our regulations to import wheels that's the reason for me to bought those 17" wheels good news is my old friend get permit to import special wheels, so i can put an order Quote:
