I've had my XB for 4 months, but just got these mounted today. This forum has been great for my research - knowing which sizes to consider - thanks to everyone for posting their pics and wheel specs. This is the only mod I've done. No lowering, aero, etc.

Nice rims!

 

Awesome wheels! So next you're gonna drop it, right

 

Sweetness. I love those wheels.

 

you could of got them from bBist.com too!

 

nice man... i was actually looking into those!! I ended up with the 501's They look Great tho!! congrats!

 

wow that is a nice effect on the pics. what is that filter you used to get it to look like that. Is it mystical ??? and if so which preset???

 

Thanks! There are a few steps and there's probably other ways to do it. For you Photoshop guys here's how I did it:
1. punch up contrast
2. duplicate layer, remove all color saturation (make this layer b/w)
4. reduce opacity on this layer to around 40%
5. duplicate layer
6. Filter/Gaussian blur
7. reduce opacity to about 50%
8. using the eraser with a large, soft brush, erase the parts of the image that are in the foreground
9. add layer and airbrush the edges using black
10. reduce opacity about 50%






Here you go hapemix!
