So I took this pic today...

DenverMR2 · 08-24-2008, 02:26 AM

And I would like some opinions personally I think they look nice. The wheel is is a 17x8 +30 mounted with Kuhmo Ecsta ASX 245/45-17. Please no Ford flames.

i aint gonna lie to you on this man..........its ugly...kinda rice to me but hey its my opinion..!!

Gairloch · 08-24-2008, 10:19 AM

I love simple five spoke wheels. The mustang caps have to go but the rest of it is

Don't suppose those wheels are staggered are they?

hmong337 · 08-24-2008, 11:11 AM

i don't think it looks that bad... mainly because you have a kit.

Davis · 08-24-2008, 11:50 AM

Looking good man. Now more pics of car! I'm curious to see how it all looks.

TreyMR2 · 08-24-2008, 01:23 PM

yeah I'd say throw a whole set on there and get some shots of the whole car. I'd be really interested in seeing how that looks. I think your kit does have a lot to do with it looking a little more in-place. I don't think I would like it at all on a stock bodied MR2. I agree with the center caps needing to go too but I'm sure you know that.

Everett · 08-24-2008, 03:38 PM

Ya, I need to see a shot of the whole thing to make a good opinion.

baktasht · 08-24-2008, 07:31 PM

They actually look extremely nice. The offset looks like it works well on the car too. Have any shots from the front/rear to show how flush it sits?

DenverMR2 · 08-24-2008, 07:47 PM

Thanks na they aren't staggered but was gonna stagger the tires just a DD anyway. i think the kit is what pulled it all together ckuz it would ride really high without.. not lowered. I don't have any pics right now but give me a coouple minutes and I'll get some more mind you though the kit is nowhere near complete but maybe seein some pics you guys can help me with some solutions.

P.S. Do you think toyota might sell some caps that would fit that center if not I'll use the cobra one's I have

PearlJammzz · 08-24-2008, 07:51 PM

My brother has these wheels on his 5.0, I have always wanted to go put them on on my and see how they look

.

The simple clean 5-spokes are the best and that looks FAR from ricey. Only thing that makes it look bleh~ are the center caps.

Oh, and driftin07, black wheels are what looks ricey

.

You might be able to find compatible center caps on ebay. Check here: toyota center cap, eBay Motors, Used items on eBay.com

DenverMR2 · 08-24-2008, 11:30 PM

Well several hours later instead of minutes I have some flushness pics so you can see how well they work I'll get you a full body pic sometime when i'm not blocked in and can get a side view from a distance.

Everett · 08-24-2008, 11:32 PM

DenverMR2 · 08-24-2008, 11:37 PM

Raptor13x · 08-25-2008, 01:24 AM

I'm not really feeling 'em, but they're not too bad.
