THANKS FOR TITLE CHANGE MODS


Updated June 21, 2010

I couldnt wait no longer, I got bit by the bug and now my car is no longer stock. I would like to say thanks to my GF for getting me some of these parts, she is an Evo lover just like me. This is the 2nd time she got me parts, first time I never installed them and sold them, sorry. We both wanted to start fixing this car up just like my MR, all these parts have been coming to my house over the past week. I have been putting parts on almost every other day, or fixing things up.

Let me know what you guys think, she will be getting modded more and more now that I already started.

To all that will ask why I got Rotas, cause its my money and I dont feel like paying $3k for rims anymore. I would rather use that money where it counts, on the engine. Ok so I decided to get one more set of good wheels.

After:

looks like your wheelgap actually increased, did you forget to buy a tire that doesn't effectively decrease the overall diameter of your wheel/tire combination?

The tires are 255/35/18 I knew that I was going to lower the car and didnt want to deal with rubbing issues. Stocks are 245/40/18 thats why it looks that way.
