never was a big fan of the RE design, but they look slick on that saabaru. 7.5/10


edit: the car would look WORLDS better without those protective molding strips running down the sides, too. it really f***s with my chi.

I think those wheels look hot! Great job! Now, get a tint job and it'll be perfect (see Winner's Window Tint for a 10% DCAWD discount, too). ;)

Pretty!

Although I do hope you didn't pay the $700+ a pop for those beauties.

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

Tires are Falken FK452 225/40/18. Thanks for the positive compliments. I actually like the body side moldings...plus it prevents door dings.

sex to the ay. they look great. maybe get some springs/suspension mods now? ditto on the side moldings. maybe find some that are color matched? i like the creative rim/tire storage in the garage.

Car is lowered on Prodrive springs with Hotchkis front and rear sway bars and Kartboy endlinks.

i thought it looked lowered but i couldn't tell. there is just always a gap unless you run a wide rim with a meaty tire or have coilovers set way low. ya know. with my 7.5 bbs' there is still a noticable gap but with my 8.5 ssr's the gap is not as bad. anyways your car looks great. good job.

It has my enthusiastic approval. Much, much better than stock. 8) Before I got my '08 FSXT, I contemplated and looked all over for a 5spd 2.5L 9-2X but never found even one.
