Hi all. Got my new deep dish rims and a complete tokiko shock and spring package, plus a ton of other suspention upgrades. So hows she lookin?? Let me hear your opinions.

 

The car looks nice.

 

looks good, check out www.nec-f.org

 

Looks Great!

 

Looking good, where did you getthe rims & tires. They look sweet, also where did you get the spring & shock/strut combo from. Need to drop & get rims for my other car i got.

 

The rims are Ruff racing 278 series. The line has been discontinued though, and the only place you can still get them is VQmotoring.com. I believe they purchased the right to the rim line. Tires are nitto NT555, and they were bought from discounttiredirect.com. I bought the spring and strut combo off ebay. Lifetime warranty on the springs and all 4 shocks and they are official tokico products for only $399 plus shipping!

Thanks to all the rest of you who commented also!

 

That car would look amazing with black rims with a crome lip

 

I actually had 17 inch black Z06 motorsport wheels with the polished lip on the car before, and I really didn't like how they looked. I had always wished I went with chrome after that, so now I did it, and am very happy. To each thier own though. My bro had black wheels on his camaro and it looked GREAT! Guess it depends on the car.

 

Looks pretty sick man...awesome stance.

 

nice and clean

 

I don't usually like big wheels, but those don't seem over the top and the classic 5 star design looks classy, I do think they look nice.

Thanks all for the comments! I wasn't expecting the car to drop quite so much with the springs, but it worked out for the better I think because it looks perfect to me. Just have to watch the speed bumps!

And luvofjah, your car is a sleeper! I saw the sig pic of it and figured it was a real clean stock notch, but then saw that it was a procharged 305. Must surprise a lot of people!

 

Whitedevil,

Your car just gets nastier and nastier each time i see it. Nice job man.

 

Thanks!

 

I might have missed it but what sixe are the rims , and what do you think of those tires ? sticky huh.

 

Tires are great! Rims are 18x9.5 in back and 18x8.5 in front.

 

WhitedevilTA Looks Great! How does the Tokico package ride? What color are the springs? I have been looking at the kit, and just want some feedback. Thanks.

 

looks great! i love that you stayed with the 5 spoke rims. i think they are the only way to go on a third gen. she is nice and low. looks mean... very mean...

 

The tokico package rides probably about as good as it'll get for a car thats about 6 inches from the ground, haha. The rims and low profile tires don't help, but honestly, I'm very happy with it. I love how responsive it feels and how much better the cornering is now. In a sports car, I would rather not have the cushiony ride, but a nice crisp one, and in that sense it's perfect! The springs are powdercoated red. I bought mine on ebay....400$ with a lifetime warranty. How can you beat that for an entire suspension upgrade!!

And thank you both for the compliments!

 

I love the stance that your car has. But I don't dig the wheel design or the chrome.

 

I think the wheels are sexy, but a hard look to pull off on a third gen. Lose the door guards and it will look 110% better IMO

 

Thanks, I'm like you I want my sports car to handle like a sports car. Thanks and for the price you are right, I will probably be ordering them in the next month or so. Thanks again.

 

looks nice. I personally can't wait to see those dyno sheets. That TA must be crankin some nice power.

 

I'm not a fan of chrome wheels, but your car sits very nice with those springs.

 

nice looking car

 

Yea, you either love em or hate them. Some people don't like chrome, and I have never had a chrome set on the car before these, and I LOVE them. As for the wheel design, I have always been a huge fan of a split 5 spoke.....they look better in person haha. Pics make the fronts look like crap, except for the side shot.

 

the car looks great overall.....the wheels are ok....just not big on wheels with rivets...
