So in the past two weeks I got my Exhaust Done & Finally I got around to finding the wheels I wanted! And got them really cheap too :D

Do you guys reckon I should stay with Gold? Or maybe try a darker bronze, or even black? 

 

I got a new hi-flow muffler welded on instead of a Cat-Back, and it sounds not to bad tbh ( little bit of a rumble ). A Cat-Back on aspirated engines apparently isn't a good idea upon research, so next is some UEL Headers and it'll hopefully make it sound a tad deeper and meaner ;) 

 

 

PS: It hurts my soul how high up in the clouds she's sitting at the moment -.- really need to get some Coilovers ASAP.

Those tyres are the wrong width and profile.

You want at least a 215/45R17 to keep your speedo correct. It wouldn't look half bad either ;)

Keep up the good work!

Yeah I noticed they were a bit off, they're insanely thin and kindve stretched at 215/40 and have more wheel gap than my stockies!

 

Thanks for the advice man I'm definitely going to get around to putting better fitted tyres on it ASAP :)
