Default Espelir/Rims installed.

Well, my rims/springs have been installed....looks sweet. The espelir springs ride great too, especially for such an agressive drop.

Here are two pics, ill take better tomorrow.

dude you don't know how long I've waited. Thanks for the compliments...I know they arent the highest quality rim, but it what was in my budget for now. Next is my system install, then my $$$ for some Trafficstars in May..hopefully.

Does your car ride like mine now?? Or is mine still a rougher ride?? Also aside from feeling the bumps do you hear them as well??

Mike,

I think it may actually ride just as good if not slightly better. But then again I'm driving it, not sitting in the passenger seat. Your Flex are stiffer.

future, I am in amazement, VVTi installed mine today as well. It looks SICK with the 20s. Great work dude!

BTW, I did some research on Espelier since I never heard of them. They are top quality in Japan, they are made by MACKIN INDUSTIRES the same company that makes Rays/Volk wheels! They are JDM to us, but will market here in the U.S. soon.
