There are so many EK hatch threads in the appearance section...

You are essentially asking everyone to post pictures of EK hatches with rims...shall we spoon-feed you some apple-sauce, too?

If you are trying to make a "picture request" thread, be a bit more specific (and do it in the appearance section, not the tech section).

Here is your apple sauce:

It started in '04 so you might run into some dead links in the earlier pages. But this is constantly updated on a daily basis.

15 would look best imo not tucking but not to much of a wheel gap.

thanks guys for the support and i have definitely been thinking bout the 15's on my hatch and my hatch when i got it had huge 17's and they were heavy and gay and of course to big........ and i was thinking bout another kind of wheel besides rota cus everyone where has them. i live by the way im one of four ek's in my town im the second cleanest this guy i know his is better its got 714hp to the wheels i think is what its at now but ya then there is there beat up red gsr and then a ricer with a bumarang wing its huge on it. the rest of the eks are everyones daily cars just stock still little virgin cars lol but ya i was thinkin bout gram lights,konig countersteers (in white when car was finished but untill something else), volk racing, mugen if i could afford it, and anything else that looks grat but is also light and not 600bucks a wheel
