Just don't curb them like you did the front bumper.



I like the wheels though. Did you use 4 fronts due to the difference in offest and width on the rear wheels?

they look better on your car than they do on the stook; plus those wheels don't photograph well so in person I bet they look even better.

Don't feel bad about the bumper thing. I hit a damned stray bumper in my car after having it out of the paint shop for only ONE freaking week!

Car looks:

I agree, I think those rims look too blocky for such a smooth car. The only thing they look good on is the s2000 imo

i agree with fowler, id like to see what they would look like on an ek though. i think with the sharper lines it might look more natural, eg/eh's are just too bubly for a wheel like that IMO.

The S2000 wheels are pretty damned heavy too. My boss has an S2000 and I've had to pick up the wheels and they sure are heavy.

My guess would be 19lbs. per wheel maybe?
