BTW, the pic above? Looks really nice... clean! I'm not a huge fan of the stretched tire thing, personally... but regardless, your ride DOES look nice.

I kinda' wish the Fit was either all-wheel drive (like the Lamborghini Murcielago. I know, a REALLY ridiculous comparison! ), or rear wheel drive. I could then justify using a staggered wheel setup -- I like the "staggered" look.

Anyway, nice pic above.
thanks........and yes Fit AWD is available , only in japan they sell it hahahahaha

OZ looked so clean. thats when i decided i wanted to rebuild a set of OZ futuras...and then MKDonz comes along and shows off his sick setup. he had all the wheels i wanted to try: BBS RS, enkei rfp1, oz turbos, and oz futuras. i just live vicariously through his fit. lol.

damn it!! u seriously have the same style as me. lol. i would love to have bbs lm's. but dont see how. the 17's they offer in 4x100 are really weak in offset. seen some nice used ones with decent offsets on vrwheels but they're all 5x114.3. r u gonna change ur lug pattern to 5x114.3? u could always swap out the faces but that's alot of money to throw down.


got this off a website that allows u to use ur own pic.

btw...i also looked into a set of replicas but none of them offer 4x100. lol.
i would luv to pick up ur futuras but its too aggressive for me. oh and yeah, i deleted the rear wiper. i just wipe it down once in awhile.

hhhmm i think i wont change it because all my wheels are re drill to 4x100, but my friend told me in australia they make knuckle from 4 to 5 for GE8. and if you want to make crazy LM, just buy another barrel

oh yeah because now is late at night i give you a teaser
