Non-photographer Photoshoot

whats up 1’ers? I think, im unsure what to call people on here but anywhooooo. I am pretty new to this forum and i was hesitant on posting any pics of my car because it was pretty “stock-looking”. I just had some new wheels installed 2 days ago so now its game on!

Klutch SL5 Wheels
18x8.5(f) 18x9.5(r) ....i have no idea of the offsets they were “custom made” from the factory.
stock height and rubbing on the rear with 265s. Fenders will be rolled soon enough.

I will also be installing a stud kit with Muteki SR48 Neo-Chrome Open Ended lugs in the coming weeks.









All I need now is some good Ol Coilovers. STs or KW V1 probably, im ballin on a budget!

He'd probably have to do alot of work to drop the car and not rub. I say keep it how it is, it looks fine!

Yea I'm probably gonna have to aggressively roll/pull fenders and some camber hopefully not too much as I am not going to drop it much, I mainly wanna rid that bouncy stock ride.

klutch.. nice... good wheels in the vdub scene!
i wonder what that offset is though!!
looks pretty damn aggresive even for the stock height.

keep us posted with suspension upgrades!

yea i was wondering it too. Im gonna hound the company and see if they even know. it is a bit aggressive. hopefully when i roll/pull the fenders it will make it look a little more subtle. And i will def update this thread or maybe make a build thread.
