Default new wheels on evo and acouple of changes

some pics of my evo 5

got new wheels and painted them a nice bright colour
removed mudflaps, painted calipers black with new stickers, new door sticker, front and read badge coloured, black headlights and indicators and lowered the front a bit more to give it a better stance, i admit the colour of the wheels is not to everyones taste but i like them there 9.5 x 18

anyhow some pics, there crap becuase its getting dark and my camera didnt know what to do lol

Looks awesome Rich I love Rota GTR's the colour is also spot on.
Quite fancy a set of GTR's for the 3 Door, how wide do you have to have them to get that dish?

I think that looks perfect!

Any other wheel it would probably look gash but those rims really suit the lary colour change. Very good choice imo.

Love the rims, not so keen on the colour but they seem to bode OK with your black 5.

Looks really good now, so much better than the before pics.

The wheels and better stance are what really makes the difference though

Looks like you keep your car looking spanking aswell

Which company makes them mate? I take it they are meant to be Rota GTR copies? They much cheaper?

yeah the stance has made a huge difference

though i can only go another 1.5cm on the front and coilovers are maxed out on the front rears have about 3 cms left, was quite chuffed there made from stainless steel aswell so they dont seize up lol

try and keep it as clean as i can being black

Love it

Is that kawasaki green or summit ?

Makes the car look awesome with that style of alloy as the white rims style do nothing for me in the slightest

the offset is et26 in a 9.5x18 with 235/40/18 tyres

the spokes just skim the caliper as in takes the paint off the caliper, ive trimmed the plastic arches on the rear flush to the metal lip, havnt had anyone in the back yet but i think they will rub due to how wide the wheels are, the front dont rub but on one side of the inside shit guard due to its strange design but an easy fix and only does it on full lock

colour is kawasaki green yes
