I don't ever plan on getting a kit or droping my car because its my daily driver and low profile tires are more than enough to worry about.

The black altezzas are a personal preference that I know very few will like. I like them because they match better with the tint and with the paint.

Well it must be nice not to have to worry about that where you are, but I have to worry about it where I am.

I have had the rims for 14 months and have had to buy 2 more due to the roads I drive on. I have also had to buy another tire because it got a bubble on the sidewall (which happened going about 25-30 mph)

Nothing wrong with a kit, I just don't want one...

Yea, there was a carwash next to that sno cone place 2 weeks ago

I'm liking them wheels mate. What are they?

Is it just me, or is your RH skirt painted and your LH one not?

They aren't some big brand, they are Kazzera KZ-B 18" in bronze. I got them from tirerack.com but I think they are discontinued.

The paint looks different depending on the lighting. Its all original, but 10 years can do a lot and from what I have noticed, paint fades differently on plastic compared to metal.

Rims aren't too big at all, I think its a good fit. A drop and kit would go nice, but again if you can't do it, gotta play with what you have

Not a fan of Altezza's, but if you like it that's what matters!

Keep it up!

hey hey, another Okie.....what do ya know? clean 'lude, trade a next size larger sidewall for a moderate drop w/ a good spring/coilover, ride wont be that much difference.....but yeah I know the roads here (stillwater) luckily I know pretty much all the bad ones and avoid them or know where to take it slow.

Solid · 10-16-2007, 11:51 PM

I think the reason everyone's saying they're too big is because without a kit it just looks donked hah
