I'm glad I saw this to the end haha At first I thought there's no way he's pulling this off. Gotta admit it looks great

[Chuckdee]

Fucking legit!

[andybob]

Thanks guys.

Plan is to get an alignment tomorrow and roll fenders tomorrow night.

I think over winter I want to figure out how to get the fronts lower. I'll need shorter coilover bodies to do that though.

great work on the wheels. never thought i would see a stanced kia.. more low and camber would set you right.

Nice!!

Great work. I wasn't much of a KIA fan. Older models just looked like crap but the KDM game has soared to new levels as of late. Looks damn good!!! Keep it up!!

Great Job. They look Great.

[andybob]

Yeah, I agree too. Thanks man.

I think that'll be my winter project as well. Lip, refinish wheels, and try and get this thing lower.

Depending on how drunk I get tonight, I might head into work tomorrow morning and mount my last tire before doing all my lug studs tomorrow. We'll see.

Good to see I'm not the only one who gauges my weekend's work by nights prior

Really digging it dude, but yeah I completely agree, it needs a lip or something to finish up the front end.

[andybob]

Thanks a lot guys. Its been a long time coming, but its finally coming together the way I always envisioned it.

Gonna try and see if I can get the front down a little more. A lip would really do wonders to finish this off, but they are stupid hard to find and I don't want to pay $300 for one from the dealer (if they even make them anymore.)

John Jameson helped me finish polishing my last wheel:





And after 2 coats of wax:



I'm almost thinking of doing these wheels in full polish for next season, but we'll see. Depending on how drunk I get tonight, I might head into work tomorrow morning and mount my last tire before doing all my lug studs tomorrow. We'll see.

[kbuss]

Love it.

[Jersh]

Awesome man.

[coconutt]

[SeanDub]

Looks great man

Got home today to find my spacers came in the mail.

I went out to test fit my wheels with tires. Turns out the 5mm I thought I would need to clear my coilover bodies in the rear were too small. So I stacked the and 10mm is perfect. Going to order the 10mm ones tonight. I then threw on a 5mm for the front and mounted them up. I'll let the pics do the talking:





Front:



Rear:



et awesome:





So the final specs will be:

17x8 et +24 front Falken 912 205/40
17x9 et +25 rear Falken 912 205/40

Installing my extended lug studs tomorrow and getting a fender roller this weekend. I'm actually just about to head out and finish polishing my last wheel.
