myeh.....
not talking mess but the ashy tires make the tirewall look real big and doesnt look that good in my opinion. maybe if the car was lower, thinner tire wall, or tires/rims were clean it would look better.... also after having seen them in deep dish i dont think the factory style look is all that flattering. Then again maybe its just the pictures....

agree with 50deep. needs to be lowered,lower profile tires,deep dish rears with them "tucked" then they would look sick. just my opinion.

yea i think he used 1 inch spacers. on all frou corners but im not sure, hopefully jon will chime in soon. i think the plan for the car was to go white i belive. this was just a test fit and what not for now

Think you need the 9" in th front and 10" in the rear and lower than it is now

thanks ty! im on a strict budget, lowering makes these cars ride like shit unless got money for extra goodies to correct the bump steer and other goodies, i would love to lower and have deep dish but thats way out my budget.and i really like how these ride stock, but the stly im tryin to look stock retro. i inch spacers in the front and 3/8 spacers in the back.just wasnt sure how the stly of wheel looked, im normaly a bullit type of guy , but aint found a good set that can beat these fr500 prices from ty.

It looks great not hating or anything but I would put deep dish black bullits with chrome lip and paint it red with black stripes or all black

Looks good! I love how FR500's look I don't care if they're played out or not they still look good to me
But if it were me I would get bigger rims and lower profile tires but thats just me
