ChelsDS 08-29-2008, 10:27 PM Eh... they don't look like they fit the car to me. :?
xravexboix 08-29-2008, 10:54 PM We're going for bold =] Almost all colors would pop from the black though.
robbiej 09-02-2008, 02:12 PM I think they would look better on the Red xD, I love the rims.
pwg_860 09-02-2008, 07:26 PM I wou like to take them off our hands, when your done with them
PM me what you could part with them for
jbanderson 09-08-2008, 11:24 AM not bad
xDeals 09-13-2008, 05:40 PM I want to see 19"s, I found a deal on eBay for the wheels I want but 19" instead of 18".
Would 19x8 +40 fit an xD? Anyone?
velo_rider 09-13-2008, 08:59 PM Drop the height and it will look 10x bettter.

Are you sure you want 19s? Thats going to hit your mileage even more than 18s do. :? I think a SL'er has 19s, Mario from Alpha Squad (XD_NV_?) has 19s and is dropped on Sprints. Don't think he has issues.
M2-Motoring 09-14-2008, 05:58 PM mario and i both have 19x8 +35 wheels. it rides fine =)
xravexboix 09-14-2008, 06:12 PM 19x8 +40 is fine also. That's what we're getting in a few days.
Those pics are dropped :doh: Tanabe NF210... but it hasn't settled in those pics. It's a little bit lower now... but not by much LOL
Mileage report. With the 18s, we lost about 1 mpg (not too bad). We just can't drive super aggressively anymore.
AcidDrop 09-15-2008, 04:10 AM BSP with bronze wheels :love:
xravexboix 09-15-2008, 04:48 PM We're mixing/matching the next set. One side will be bronze and the other will be gun metal (almost black). We may also use 2 different style wheels. It should be interesting =]
redline8k 11-04-2008, 05:37 AM Pm me with any info from sema,(you know what I mean)!

katchkillah 11-04-2008, 08:31 AM ^^^actually did that at the International Auto Show in Honolulu a few years back. LOL. was too lazy to swap out the complete set and left the other half with the old set up.
TRDxD 11-05-2008, 01:34 AM shoulda gone DF's if youre looking for a nicer drop, especially with the 19s....drop it more :D or else youre going to get a lifted look....not cool -_-
UnTouChbLe_D 01-20-2009, 09:25 PM damn it!!! i want your rimssssssss noooooooooooooooooooooo lol looks great
xravexboix 01-21-2009, 05:20 PM Regarding the drop:
The NF were chosen as a temporary setup. We were considering coilovers at the time. Plus the lip kit will be scraping everything if we went with the DF. My driveway is too steep... My Supra (MA71) can't get in and out w/o scraping the exhaust, and it's at stock height.
The springs are either lower than first expected OR sagging now. The rear has a 1 finger gap and the front has a 1.5 finger gap (215/40R18 tire on 18x7.5).
ChelsDS 01-22-2009, 02:51 AM Told you Jeff :P
The gap on both front and rear are about the same as you just stated. However I don't think its sagging. Mine have been at that height since late last year.
lbc_9thgen 01-24-2009, 08:37 AM looks pretty damn good. haha.
