Default ~~hella flush & over-exposed~~ FG2 content.

Just a few pictures of a customer's car I did wheels on.

Pictures are way over exposed and look like *****. But it's not often you see 'low' offset wheels on an FG2 civic. I thought it was sweet

Wheels are Enkei RPF1- 17x8.5" +30et, with 215/40/17 Yoko Parada s2.

Car is dumped pretty much all the way on F2 coilovers. Sucks that it can't go lower.

I rolled the rear fenders a little bit and tucked the plastics up front.

Pretty flush

If he just went .5" wider you would have concave spokes to have the look of low offset wheels.

And he would have had to wait two months for Enkei NA to get the 17x9's back in stock

That's what he wanted...he likes the 'stretched' look apparently ?

I didn't post it on 8thcivic, that site sucks. The owner may have, I don't know. They're definitely an 8.5" though. Maybe it was someone else?
