Man those wheels are beautiful. Not a big fan of the stretch though. I have never seen them in white.

Aren't those SSR Koenigs? Is the "Monster" a replica made by König?

Throw on your front flaps!

Have you considered putting spacers in the front?

not a fan of staggered wheels on a FWD car, but they do look great on there

Are you serious? Look at the rear tire's side wall. They are not crazy hippari style or anything, but those ARE stretched.

thanks for all the comments guys. YESSSS the tires are stretched with fully exposed rim in the rear. lol. I know that staggered wheels make no sense on a FWD but since it is my daily and I never plan on tracking this car it doesn't really make any difference. I always tell people "if I was worried about handling I would have bought a FWD sedan"

I am getting either 15mm or 20mm spacers for the front to complete the flushness. I could use a 10mm spacer out back, but it will take a bit more body modification.

I have a couple things going on for a lip kit, but you'll just have to wait for those pics

Oh yeah.... I used to have the front flaps on, but then I dropped it another 1.5" and they drug constantly and would have messed up my sides.

Looks lovely, but you definitely need those spacers up front ASAP.
