DP6 Hyper Black

42mm offset so I am going to get 5mm spacers all around to give it a 37mm off set. I am hoping with that I will be able to fit 215/40/17 on with no rubbing issues. I want the wider tire to protect that lip.

Bad part is I have to wait 6 to 8 weeks for them to show up. Good part is I can pay off the Credit Card in time to throw the rubber on it.

I am a little nervous if they will look good on my Blaze Red R/T as I have not seen many of this style around.

Well 6 to 8 weeks turned out to be 5 days... My Credit Card is on life support now but here are the results

those look like shit........j/k, they're sweet, def a good choice to go with blaze red, and I think dblsg is right, I don't think you'll need spacers. Can't wait to see pics of them on your ride

They look good with a red car that's for sure. Couldn't picture them on a different color looking good.

I bet a handicapped person would hate you stealing their spot though, he might let you have it just cause of your nice rims though.

Those are the same wheels I was looking at! Great choice dood! They look great on your car!

Don't mean to point out bad things but...Why do the B pillar covers always do that fading/fogging thing, I have seen it on quite a few Newer Neons...

Those look great, dude! I'm jealous!

Thx

The B pillers piss me off...Just not enough to spend $150 on the carbon fiber ones....YET

They were fine until I used one of those drive thru car washes with the super wax in three colors.

did you try it without the spacers?

those wheels do look really good.

Yeah no Spacers. I think I may get some for the rear tho as I want to move the wheels out a bit.

Falken 512's 215 40 17. There is about half a finger worth of space.

I am getting pooped on the other .org for parking in the handicap spot.

It was an empty park or I would have parked on the grass instead:

Awesome dude, looks grrrrrrrreat! (Tony the Tiger)
Do you have you car lowered? Just curious, cause it 'looks' like it is.

RedBC R/T · Post by **RedBC R/T** » Sat Mar 25, 2006 4:11 am

Yeah lowered on H&R Sport springs. Drop is 1.5 Front 1.4 Rear. It has settled a bit tho.

Still on Stock Struts but as sooon as my Credit Card is off life support I think I am going to brave the Koni insert install. If I cannot make it go fast (damn NGC) I want it to ride and handle nice.

My GF thinks I am nuts to spend all the money I do on my car. But that is why she is still my GF and not the wife

Please Note I will deny saying that at all costs...

Thx again for all the nice comments.
