Does It Rub? *Teaser*

What do you think?
Still workin on the wheels. Im going to have to adjust camber somehow. I'll probably go cheap and ghetto and put a slimmer bolt up front. The rear is ok.
Right now the car looks a little Messican. It honestly looks bad ass in person.

It started to rain on me again. For now the driver side has the Enkei wheels. Hahah!

Hahah! Honestly, when I put them on and they didnt fit good I was almost fed up. Drove her around just now, rocking one side of hottt wheels. Rubbing isnt that bad. Rear is the most noticeable.

Another pic. Side profile is sick nasty!!! They look big!!

Thats what I was looking for originally. BBS's hold value like no other wheel though. And 4x100 BBS's... those are always 2/3 piece. Thats a good 1000-1500 in used wheels alone.

I didnt spend much on these wheels; just getting them on the car was MORE than the wheels alone. Almost $600 for adapters, tires, and the 2 lips fixed. So around $1100 for some used wheels that will eat up my fenders.

And Im not a center cap fan. As much as I love the huge BBS's centers, Id keep them off.

It'll be a pearl white but not like regular pearl white. Not sure what color pearl I want in the white.

Axis OG's were another wheel of my choice. Im a big mesh fan, and the OG Sans are reverse mesh which is even nicer. Since I was doing adapters I was going to get SSR's. The offsets were too extreme. (240's)

All 4 wheels are on. I painted the adapters flat black so they arent noticeable. Car looks motha chicken nice! The stance is so mean!!

Looks like this. And them Im like this. Then I hit a bump and Im like this.

I have no idea what the offset came out to. I dont think these wheels are +25mm like the seller told me. I did notice a "15" in the hubs of one of the wheels. It was just the number though. No other markings. Looking at the wheels in person, my guess is 0 to -8 offset.

Thanks everyone. The Fit meet is today, sure to have some nice shots as the weather is great.

A little update. Ive been driving her around. She rubs a lot (as you can tell)
Its ruining my rear bumper tabs. My driverside was already broken due to me. When I hit dips and the tires rub the driverside bumper ends pop out.
The passenger side is going to start doing it now.

Going around corners at a quick speed results in the smell of burning rubber. Hahaha. Doesnt bother me that much.

Im still going to do a camber adjustment sometime. Just not right now.

15x7. The tires are 195/50's. Its due to the tire brand. I wasnt happy when I saw the tires didnt stretch.
Cant always be a winner.....
