Are those wheels photoshopped?! Those things are ridiculous!You must have a horrid turning radius (read crazy fender rub) even with the lo-pros if they are the real deal. Looks like in the one picture your wheels are at ther max turning angle, which must suck ***. Kudos on the NOS..but doesn't putting 19s (and the accompanying weight, rotating mass, and effect on gearing) just offset most of accelaration gain?

Damb you've got a nice ride! Everything you've got is what I want, specially the B&M, Ebiach, and Carbon Fibers!! Nice ride dudes... Do those 19s touch the inside well at all?

MikeD,

No, it's not photoshopped... and the wheels turn more than that just fine... it won't be that low while I'm driving.. .that's what the coil overs are for

Very nice. I think it is time for AirBags!

Great car. Where did that little emblem that says "ES 2.0" come from? Is that factory? It looks good.

Man, when I first saw your ride, I was thinking....photoshop! I was damn impressed with the photoshop job too. Nothing gives it away.

Then, I read IT'S NOT PHOTOSHOPPED! WOW. I guess that's a compliment. The rims really work with the car.

Nice work. I love car pics with plam trees in the background
