how cheap is reasonable?

i think that if your car was a little lower and you powdercoated them gloss white... you'd be all set!!

i like them better on the gen3 than the gen2... sorry alexxx

It does look kinda high hey...dunno what to do about that, maybe your right - maybe it will settle over the next few hours or something. They are not ON on yet, i need to get them balanced tomorrow so then they'll be on for good.

I reckon it's the perfect height. First time I've seen a gen3 where the wheels actually fill out the wells properly - good choice.

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.


It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

So, after being quoted $75 per guard I don't think i'll be getting them rolled. The car sits fine, and providing I don't load up the rear end too much (no pun intended) it'll be fine I reckon. Fit and alignment will happen in the next few days. Moar pics to come once they're on proper.

Those rims rock on Alexxx's wagon, a winner against silver paint. You need bigger, non red brakes. :D

I'm undecided about those rims on a gen3. They look great on a gen2 but hmmm... there's something not clicking with me. I agree with Mark, Moar bleck brake calipers... **EDIT** Just figured it out! Needs tint, clear indicators, black calipers... There's too many different colours going on with the dark paint!

...so basically something about my brakes, right? lol.

Yes I am well aware of the issue with the brakes. If you lot reckon the 3R-b brakes will fit behind these rims i'll try and find some.

They look good, they fill out the arches nicely and I don't think the car sits too high at all. Could do with some of those bigger brakes like what alexxx has on his but other than that, it looks good....for a gen3 :P
