    New wheels!

    I picked up my KT1s yesterday! Tires are just temporary but I am liking the VW esque stretch in the rear!

      Wheels look great! It would look even better if the car was lowered a little more though.

      16x7.5 in the front and 16x9 in the rear? What offsets are you running and are you using spacers?

              looks sweet, i love kt1s. I think when you lower it more you should get some spacers to fill out the fenders a little better, to get them more flush. Looks good though!

                No spacers. Just run 215/45/16s in the front and 235/40/16s in the rear. =) Get that meat!!! I wish I could run that much rubber.

                              Like the wheels on bronzit, but not a fan on the front tires being taller.
