Well I washed the car and finally installed my HIC rear window visor yesterday, so here are a few pics I edited! Wheels are coming soon, I've got the cash, I'm just torn between two... anyway, on with the pics. Comments and criticisms welcome on the car/photos. All shots were taken with my Sony Alpha a300 dslr and edited with adobe lightroom







and if anyone is curious, these are the wheels I'm trying to decide between. both sets will be 19x9.5" et +40 (get some 10-15mm) spacers. MMR HR2 or Euortek 03. Any input??

really beautiful car man! remember.... drop before rims! as far as your wheel choices, i think you should find some wheels with a little better offsets so you don't hafta run spacers. +40 is kinda high

definitely! buy some wheels with low offsets. my wheels are +35. even with 26mm spacers its not enough for me. =[

The car is Beautiful,,,, I'm considering getting a rear window visor myself... As for the wheels, I think that you should search for a more "unique" set of rims... Don't get me wrong, I love both options. However, there's nothing "special" about them... Oh yea. Would it be possible for you to color match the visor? If so, I would... Just to keep that gem super clean...

That's my 2cents...

Nice shots! Definitely clean...good luck on your wheel decision-it's always tough deciding on the "right" wheels. GL

Looks nice. Not feeling the roof spoiler. Looks really odd on a stock car. Only time I ever felt those looked "in place" is if the car is slammed with a bodykit.

Thanks! And I know I know, I'd rather do wheels though, go against the grain plus I can get those on, have the fenders rolled, then get my coils and be done! And I know its a little high, but I'm not looking for a crazy stance, just clean, low and simple. No camber, mild tire stretch, and so forth.


with a 9.5" width all around, what would you recommend, then?

Thanks!
Thanks! I love the visor, I just think it looks sleek and subtle, and I love the look without a rear spoiler, so I may take mine off later if I can get some paint/body work done. And I have seen them color matched, but I like the clear smoke look that they come in better, especially on tinted glass. As for the wheels, I get what you're saying! Sadly, most everything has been done, seeing that the oldest SCs are now 20 years old (crazy to think about!!!)! The MMRs in the 9.5" width are really concave, which I like, and BBS LMs are my favorite, but out of my price range, hence the reps. If I could do any wheels, I really would love Vossen CV3s, but I don't want 20" which are the only size offered for now...
hahaha, clean!!! I'm jealous of your front bumper, I hate that mine was a New York car and had holes in the bumper for a plate... another thing I want to get fixed...
Thanks, I appreciate it! And thanks, it is definitely a tough decision... haha hopefully I'll pull the trigger soon!

Oh well, I guess I can't please everyone lol I plan on lowering the car and adding a front lip (at least, if not the whole AC kit) in the future.

That color on a 97+ SC looks absolutely amazing in real life. I'll go ahead and say it's easily one of the nicest colors for the SC. It's like the Ferrari red almost.

I have a set ot 18x8.5/9.5 +17 all the way around and I had to roll my fenders slightly to lower the car but looks really nice. It's not hellaflush but it's damn near close to it. I also say go with the second wheel choice that would be pure sex!! I am running 255/35/18 in rear and I have 235/40/18 in front. I will be going with less negative camber to make it more flush looking since it needs an adjustment bad!!

Clean start to you ride!!!!

Your going to want a 22 offset 15 if you like the hellaflush small poke look and I would go with the mmr's with about 2" drop , that would be super clean
