Seems like they're all talking to me.

1. Most of us will agree stretched tires are not our personal tastes, but I wouldn't go as far to say they're for fags.
2. Tommy's tires aren't as bad as a LOT of other setups. IMO, I think if anything his wheel is just a hair too wide...
3. What's this about RPF1's Steve? That'd be cool...
What's acceptable as far as stretched tires go IMO..
Correct "Square" tires being the control and based on 1/2" increments of wheel widths(18x9, 18x9.5, 18x10, etc)
1 size slimmer tires = just right
2 sizes slimmer tires = too much
Just throwing it out there :screwy:
Yes. Yes they are....
Since I'm perfectly happy with my BBS's (even in the condition they're in), I no longer have a hard-on for getting RPF1's. Tommy has been tossing the idea around alt lately and I think it would be the look he's after. He complained the other day that there's 3/4 silver bugeyes on NASIOC with silver RPF1's, and the same exact lip/scoop/spoiler combo as him and he doesn't wanna be a copycat. My solution: they'd look like sex in black!!!
Fixed:P lol
your car looks good imo....some take the whole extreme fitment/stance thing too far. this guy is a fag....and what makes it worse is how he thinks he is the fucking shit for having a stanced...nay..mexipoked cobalt that looks like ass:

he has since toned it down and actually looks decent now:

that first picture is 9.5's on 215's.......that's stretched lol
If the guy who owns that cobalt thinks that car looks good he is crazy,that looks like shit. Tommy get the "sbc" colored rpf1. They look fucking awesome on a silver car.
oh my bad....typo.....225/40/18....this shows the stretch better:

either way it looks like ass
atleast he's not running stupidly large amounts of camber to make it work....
I wasn't referring to Tommy's car in my "stretched tires are for fags" comment. His car looks much better now that he's added some camber all the way around. He's eliminated the mexi-flush look.
All he would need to complete the look is some curb-feelers and a Puerto Rican flag hanging from the rear-view mirror.
And a JDM novice driver stickers on the windshield and a straight bill hat on the dash.
looks good danny
Not too shabby!
I'll have to check that out in person! Looks good!

But Yall know my super sweet mexi camber fitment right? http://img.tapatalk.com/48988c5b-4485-045f.jpg
These were the tires that came with the wheels... The stretch fucking killed me... I hated it... I went like 3 inches wider for the new tires...http://img.tapatalk.com/48988c5b-451f-0adf.jpg

why havent you painted your front bumper and grill? the faded black doesnt work:( i know white would look best, but even spraying it black from a rattle can (with proper prep) would look decent.
The lighting looks fine on the gauges in person. The pictures make it look a little uneven. The only place that lacks a bit of light is under the tripometer, due to the location of the light bulb.
And the gauges are red due to the gauge faces. The OEM bulbs have a green "condom" on them to help illuminate the stock gauges in green, but we took off the condoms so they are now just clear bulbs. Does that make sense?
I prefer the grey look opposed to dark black... They weren't really back from factory.... And we have the windshield frame of the jeep and did a lil bit of welding and bondo... Waiting for dad to paint that then hopefully we can just get some white on my truck with the lil compressor... And maybe redo it when the big one is wired.....
Yeah I changed my gauge bulbs color...
The factory bulbs are yellowish and the gauges are blue plastic so I put white leds I and now I have a pretty blue color that matches my headunit.. but they don't dim very well...
I actually changed the lights in my a/c panel and headlight switch too... All.blue...http://img.tapatalk.com/48988c5b-c406-3ccc.jpg

Miata gauges look good :goodjob:
