New Wheels (Tenzo R DC5 Version 1 w/225/40-18 Nitto Neo Gen's), and some of Doggy's handy-work on the front and rear splitters and Duckbill spoiler. I'd digging it!

that looks fantastic with the splitters and duckbill
it may not be as fast as your other rides but that styling makes it HOT.how do the new wheels/tires feel ? comfy, bumpy, any rubbing when you do a full turn ? -------------------- |

looks great. last thing i would do the exterior is jdm tails or smoke/red out the stock tails.
looks amazing. is it just me or do those rims look smaller than the older rims? i think the new ones fit the car better. --------------------  Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;) |

JDM tails are on the list, along with shaved marker and door handles. I think I preferred the old wheels because the lip gave them some depth and made the fenders look more curvacious.
The new wheels look smaller because the tires are bigger. The old wheels had rubber band 215/35-18's on them, these wheels are the same size, but the tires are 225/40-18. The ride is VERY supple and comfortable with the new setup. The car almost caused a wreck today while I was working at AutoZone. A group of bikes came down the road and one slowed down while staring at the car and pointing and almost got rear-ended.

I was laughing my butt off in the store watching them do some quick maneuvering so they didn't run over each other. Had a local guy stop in the store and invite me to a little local car enthusiast meet last night. So I went and the car got an amazing reception. -------------------- |

Well, best part so far, zero rubbing from the bigger tires. And she's sitting on them really good now that the suspension has settled back down. I miss the dish of the old wheels but REALLY love the new look too.
