Macs's Jazz

I've been a long time lurker here and I finally got the courage to join up and post pics of my ride. I'll let the pictures do the talking, let me know what you guys think.


My 2010 Jazz is running on a set of Work Ewing wheels (don't really know which series) & custom springs and shocks. And the specs are:



Optional Front Fog Light
USDM Rear Tail Light
K&N Open Air Filter
Customized Hurricane Open Air Piping
Front and Rear Custom Springs
Front Modified OEM Jazz GD Shock-Absorber
Rear Bilstein Shock-Absorber
RECARO Style w/ RECARO U-railing
Custom Seat Brackets


Rims
WORK EWING IV 17"
Fr: 17" x 8.5jj
Rr: 17" x 9.5jj
*note: (repositioned the barrel and lips)

Tyres
205/40 all around









Moar Pics:





First ever photo shoot, haven't had the chance to remove the tints, add stickers to the headlamp, nor debadged the rear emblems:














A bit more detailed look of the wheels:



Brighter pictures at last, but the car is dirtaaay . And this is how my car looks now. I've removed the tints, added some yellow clear stickers on the side of the headlamp (to resemble the USDM headlamps, and they look better this way IMHO) :





Are the 205/40 tires a bit to stretched for the rear? Might try to fit on 215/40's. Let me know what you guys think. Plus I'm doing something to the interior (hint: better seats). I'll post pictures once they're done

It rubs a bit on the lips of the rear rims. Slight rubbing on the front while turning. It aint that bad though. Still trying to figure out the fitment for the rear so that it'll rub on the tires instead of the lips

Thanks bro. But I'm having a hard time trying to figure out the exact series of these wheels. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to help me out here

What is the rest of the wheel specs? Offset front and rear? I know you said it rubbed some but did you have to roll the fenders at all or pull the fenders? I am looking at doing something similar but its the offset I am still trying to figure out.

By the way...those wheels look great!

Front offset is 39 and rear offset is 32, both on spacers. But the perfect offset for the front is around 35 ish if you want it a bit flushed. 35 front & 32 rear is the perfect offset for the GE8 imho.

I did roll all four fenders and pulled it just a tad bit on the rear. But the drag was that I had cut a little piece on the front inner plastic fenders (what ever they are called) since it was rubbing way to much when hitting bumps on the road. But if you don't lower your car as much as mine.

Best of luck brother, I'll be happy to help out as much as I can. Just hit me up if you have more questions

I am looking to just lower on springs. It wouldn't be necessary for me to get coilovers. Thanks for the info.

Nice wheels for sure! But do they make USDM GE8'S with 5 lugs too

Almost positive no GE's anywhere come 5 lug, pretty sure the OP swapped hubs.
