well these wheels were off my friends civic and i got them for dirrrrty cheep, they are Sparco racing replica wheels and the size is 16x7 with a 38 offset...the but the tires have to go, there old falkens and the size if 205/40/16...as u can see the side wall is wayyy to small, im thinking about getting 205/50/16, u guys think those would look better and fill in the side walls more?

 

o yeah and im gona get then redone, flat black with a red lip

 

^^ yah, that would look nice with the attack look.

are you going to lower your ride?

 

it already has springs on it...they are purple ones...i dont kno which ones they are tho

its llooks like its not droped cuz the side wallls are sooo small

 

I would keep that tire size and save up for some coilovers or springs that lowered it some more. I dig the small tire look on a nice lowered mini

Your painting idea sounds good though

 

yeah i would love some coilovers but im tryin to save up cuz im gona get in pasadena art center soon, but as far as springs go, what good out there that give the mini a nice low and even drop

 

M7 springs get you pretty low....H&R are pretty good too if you're looking for a low ride height. I wonder what springs you have though....i dont know if i know any purple ones...hmmm.

Did you JUST install the wheels before taking that pic? It might also take some time for the springs to settle to their real ride height.

Congrats on the school.....

 

well i put the stock wheels bak on since the tires that the new wheels came with a basicly gone, and next time i take the wheels off ill take some pics on the springs.

 

let us know how purple they are.....the vogtland springs look to be a shade of purple.

 

I think that's the art school my wife went to in the 80's I'll have to ask. She was the youngest in her class....good school
