I think it looks very good. Love the fitment. I have to get pics up of mine. Put gold rota gt3 in 16x7 +40 with the stock 185/55 16 on my BBP GE. Waiting for a decent day to get some pics.

Really do think the yellow is a cool color on the SSM though.

is it just me? it just needs to be on some sort of pavement unless it's a rally car or offroad for me. i kept scrolling down, hoping for some pics of it on the road haha.

good work on the fitment though!
The pics on grass really threw me off... I saw a Jersey plate, and Grass, in the same photo... I expected to see blacktop or concrete but not grass

Let people hate. some people might/will hate. its just the fact of life. but if its a silver GTR with yellow wheels people will dig it cus its on a GTR.

anyways it actually looks good. theres a bunch of silver xb's out here in socal with yellow faced bbs RS/RM with polish lip. IT turn HEADS all the time. Silver is considered by alot of people as a boring color, wheel colors is what makes it money.

Good job, keep it up. always liked your car

no man, don't swap the front and rear springs. they're totally different. i don't think it'll fit but even if it did, you still don't want to do that lol.

Looks really good. GREAT shots. What lens? I'm learning the FIT is not the easiest car to photograph well.

I really like the car on the grass. Not sure why, but my first impression was whaoo what's this - yellow wheels low in the grass. Just kept me going thru them and then back to some. Think you nailed it on #9.

The pavement shots just don't have the same impact.

I like the yellow wheels as well. I really like the yellow wheels.

Thanks for the comments guys, the rear has more room witch is why. The rears are 205 and the fronts are 195 so the fitment is better
I used a nikkon coolpix to take these pics
