    New rims on (BBS RX)...

    BBS RX, 16x7". 205/50/16 Bridgestone Potenza RE730.









    There is about 5mm clearance between the tread and fender liner.











    A new lip is on the way, the old one was demolished. The rockers are also getting redone.

            I have yet to see a BBS wheel that I don't like. Those fucking rock.

              Thanks for the compliments. I haven't pushed the car yet at all, but for now I'm extremely happy with the tire change. The ride quality has gotten quite softer, despite the shorter sidewall. Shocked the hell outta me, those Azenis have some crazy stiffness.

              Not sure what happened to the paint, that's not bare metal you're seeing. Maybe my dad primered something and didn't paint it a while back, but I doubt it.

                Paint the rockers bodycolor. Or if you were going to before I said that, go right ahead!

                Looks great. I'd like to see a diamantshwarz car with RX's with paint matched centers and a polished lip...

                  Cool. Very similar to my setup (RE750)

                      Looks pretty good. Maybe I'm an alien or something, but I'm just not a huge fan of the multi-spoke BBS style rims.

                      But they do look good on your car. Very nice indeed. :up:

                        BBS has like 2-3 models that arent multispoke. :?

                        Edit: He doesnt have multi-spokle BBS style rims, the are the real deal.

                          Yes, I know, but I didn't want to say BBS and BBS style rims. :D Trust me, I know the difference between the real ones and fakes.

                            Is that the way your wipers normally sit?

                            if so they need a readjustment as mine screwed up last night and i had to fix them today as they were sitting exactly like that. :?

                            just pop the hood and take off the firewall cover then drop the acutator arms off the windshield wiper motor then run just the wiper motor until it resets back to normal position then get the swivelish part straight with the arms and pop it back on and screw that 10 mm bolt back onto it then put everything back together and your done. whew *takes a deep breath*
