dayuum sick pics!
are your fronts 17's? looks lower than jons hahah.

 

looks cool!

It be also awesome to get a lot of Flint Mica tC's in SoCal together for a photoshoot someday!

 

Thanks for noticing Mike. I am on 17s in the front. We both could go lower than these pictures if it wasn't for our fenders sitting on the sidewall of the tires.

Ya Tee, majority of the modified bunch in Socal are Flint Mica... It'd be like a family photo :D

 

Haha so dope!

Agree on the photoshoot! we should set something up!

 

awesome meeting my twin yesterday lol. so trippy seeing two fm's on bags with meshies. haha

 

Twas awesome and worth the trip. Time to start savin huh Jon lol

 

you mentioned sportier, going for thicker tires? :D and cant wait till the winter setup is ready!

 

Ya, since everyones going the deep dish mesh route, I want to go more sportier looking. Depending on my walet size, I may have to go thicker tires

I've recently started to snowboard again. Going up mountains with stretched tires isn't the smartest thing to do considering all the pot holes and rocks. And looking at my car now, I don't see it as a car that I would take to the mountains... yet. So my definition of sportier is more "terrain/camping friendly" and less "showy showy". (how my momma calls it)

I can't wait either. I'm expecting the rest of the wheels by the end of April... then i'll have to flush it all out. (Sigh) What a long, tedious, expensive process to look good ;p

 

well if you think about it, thicker tires wouldnt be a bad idea, it would save your wheels from horrible road conditions lol

 

so i mean, you kinda copied my setup just to diss my car. my car used to be one of a kinda till all this hype happened. thats why i change my wheels ALL the time. most of the wheels i get are not copied from anyone on this forum, and if they are, i dont diss the last person who had them.

 

Set it up Tito!

 

Jeremy, I hope you didn't take my comment I stated in the last page offensively. I by no means meant to disrespect you, even after saying "I don't mean to diss..." in the same statement you quoted. You were and still are an inspiration to me in the whole flush scene and I wouldn't have gotten here if it wasn't for you. I'm sorry if you got the notion of me biting the hand that fed me, but personally I think the rise of tCs on mesh wheels are getting a little excessive. Excessive to the point that I'm being noticed or seen in places that I'm not at (especially one of them was my older brother who saw "me").

That's why I'm going towards something different. A little more functional than what I'm currently on and more modifiable than keeping a fixed amount of camber to fit a certain wheel.

And what I mean by functional - my buddy in a 90 hp hyundai accent could beat me off the line due to my -3 camber and stretched tires. Never happened before and I want change that.

 

For the record, I didn't get the air ride kit to show off how much money I have, prove that I'm better than others, follow a trend or even front how I am lower than everybody when aired out. I didn't get the wheels with the intentions of copying anybody, feeling original, gaining rep or ruining someone's rep. I enjoy modding my car for the sake of my own sanity, passion, and enjoyment. I like driving a nice looking vehicle (can't believe who wouldn't), but I also like the convenience of going over speed bumps without scratching (which is inevitable in my apartment complex if slammed) and going up driveways normally so I wouldn't get rear ended by ____heads.

So for all those people who are following my thread and searching for originality, I'm sorry but everything I'm doing, everything I'm gonna do has been done already. I'm thankful and appreciate those for the support they give me and following my thread and I'll be continuing to update on what I'm doing.

For those who don't know, I'm getting a new wheel set up, White Rota Grids, hopefully by the end of this month. I'm keeping my current wheel setup for future plans and I'm saving up for something big... I'm also awaiting my car bra which should be coming in this week.

Now all I gotta save up for is a snowboard...

 

So I checked the update of the car bra... Apparently Colgan is having some mad issues with their factory and cannot keep up their supply with demand. In 'Disaster Management' this is called a crisis. Never knew I would use that knowledge.

Meanwhile, school just bumped up its priority level and these next couple of weeks I won't be able to work on her, but after the couple of weeks, i have a lot of mods waiting ;)

 

If I'm not mistaken, you both had your air kits installed at the same shop as well. ;)

 

judging by the quality of install I got, I could've sworn mine was from a different shop haha

 

I like this build nice job

 

Thanks, really appreciate it.

I'm really miss being static... Missing the stiffness of the rear springs... I may be wanting to trade someone my setup for theirs

 

Keeping my eyes on this thread. Beautiful car. Major kudos. Cant wait to see the Rotas installed.

 

thanx for the major kudos, cant wait either for those 23lb paper weights to actually be on my car...

in the meantime i also did a mini mod. It's kinda a nay for me, but its functional for long trips and it's slowly growing on to me. Sad part is it took 2 months for me to wait for it, as excited as I was, what I invisioned didn't turn out to be what I wanted. Well, why don't you guys tell me? Yay er nay?

since I suck with the picture box, anybody go any tricks into getting the background of bright pix?






a lil too much going on or is it just me?








While my wheels are just provoking me and taking up space in my room, I have yet to find time to look for new tires...
