Kyle's new build, it's a ford.

[saturnstance]

I hardly post because i had nothing to post about. But, i got rid of the saturn in favor of an '06 Ford Fusion. yeah, again an unorthodox car but i don't like normal. I'll only post when i have parts in my possession but wanted to start a build thread.


(i removed front plate holder already)

i have smoked side markers and a spare upper and lower grille im going to be painting Matte black. Also, talked to Rotiform about wheels and K&W about coil overs. Enjoy!

well wow this should be pretty damn interesting when its low haha i cant wait to see it ive wondered what a fusion would look like slammed

[saturnstance]

Thanks haha here's a photoshop, not the best.


I'm most likely going to go with these:


19x8.5 +35 Matte Black

im not liking the neon pink/red/orange wheel photoshop.
but i guess you cant go wrong with rotiforms...

please dont prove me wrong.

EDIT: oops i didnt see that you said Matte Black

[fivefourzero]

i would much rather see them brushed than all black, whats the point of nice wheels if you can't really see them? im interested in seeing how this turns out, props for going with something totally different

[saturnstance]

I'm not sold on the all black myself, just initial thoughts. I would like to add color somewhere though.

[P78]

the shopped wheels are too small

curious to c with the roti's

[saturnstance]

So, things may come along sooner than expected, a friend is going to be letting go of his Works. They're the right size and decently priced. I just need my tax return!

Oh, sizes are 18x8.5 +35 all around.

Following this one!

Bringing this back from the dead along with my Subaru thread. It's been almost three years since I've updated this. Since I have the Subaru as an actual project here's where I'm at with this.

Getting set to do general maintenance at 120k miles. After that:
Tint
New Stereo system
Coilovers (BC from a MAzda 6 since they're the same platform)
Wheels.

Keeping it a decent daily. Nothing too crazy or over the top.

Kind of had an Impulse buy this morning..ordered a set of wheels for this. Specs are 18x9 +15 all around. Probably end up running 235/40 Falkens.

[danielsahhhn]

go the roti's, te's dont suit imo.

Cool chassis to play with though...interested to see how it turns out

[mikey G]

any full faced wheel will look good on this IMO

[saturnstance]

Wheels with a little but of lip don't look bad either. I know I'm going to end up cycling through wheels until I'm happy. haha
