And could cost up to $1900 after all....

I give up. I'm stuck with effing base wheels for life.

Edges of the rims look like they've lived the life of track wheels from repeated tyre mountings.
I know my R6's wheels weren't pretty anymore after a season of racing and having new tyres mounted by the Dunlop truck at the track every weekend!

I'm a huge fan of the "modded-but-still-looks-factory" look.

wouldn't that be the nismo model? :confused:

No and eh. I don't like the base wheel at all. I'll just use my money for G3/HFC/Tune

What's your budget on wheels, I have the 18 OEM which is a different style than Red_Zed:

Good lord, do you ever stop complaining? Do you realize how ridiculous you sound?


"Wah, you beat me with a baseball bat, locked me in a trunk for weeks, and then left me to die somewhere in the desert"


Let it go already. You sound like a wuss:shakes head:

kenchan 01-14-2013 02:44 PM

^^ those are nice looking, mr.alcheng. i think the 2013's base coupe come with those wheels now?

Not exactly...
I'm not a huge fan of the Nismo rear end or spoiler. The ducktail Gurney has on there is slightly more aggressive, but still subtle. The lower stance helps, too.
His colour scheme is really good, and I'm a fan of the red brakes and cross-drilled rotors ;)
