Looks like your horizon line is a bit off. I can see everyone at home in front of their monitors with their heads tilted. Sorry your car looks nice but I'm not into the tilted thing.

just installed projectors on this thing, anyone know if I should wire the three little LED lights to be on with the parking lights or use them just as signals?
I left them just as signals so they only come on with the blinker, should i change them to the parking light wire?

umm 50 isnt a low profile tire, 35-40 is
if you go with a 225, you need to go to a 50 to keep the same tire diameter as the stock tires.
I have forged 15in wheels, I don't think you can bend those on stock suspension unless your purposely run into a curb or something stupid

btw, I see a lot of miseducation on this forum, sad

arrogance??? For a "daily beater" why put dark tint, de-badge, projectors, and different wheels. A beater is usually an old car/truck that just "gets from point A to point B." It looks like you lo pro tires and serious wheel gap because its not a stock wheel. and........People were just saying they dont like how 7/10 of the pics had some serious angles on them.
