I am trying to maintain certain elements, but not all elements of VIP cars. namely trying to stray away from the go to work euroline dh or other kinds of full faced style wheels.
      don't get me wrong, i'm far way from the VIP scene, even don't like it, except the fitment in some cases, but that's all...

      i mean that this is big body car, massive, and really need some deep dish or fat spokes wheels, but that's what i'm just thinking.

      cheers!

        I've gotta say that if i hadn't seen the pictures, i wouldn't have thought the rpf's would fit as well as they do with the rest of the LS. I want to see more of this thing!

          I'm with the death squad. Never would I have thought that RPF1's would look so nasty on a big body.

          Idk what it is, but something about this car is so fucking hard it would make small children cry.

          It just looks like this car would be parked in the grass at a drift event with a trailer hauling some beat up ass RPF1's with drift tires, and one of your buddies driving it while you had a caged, gutted out drift car (FC RX7 or some shit) out there pounding the wall with 80mph corner entry speeds.

            those wheels wouldnt have been my first choice but i do think it looks cool
            to clean it up a bit you should get some center caps on those wheels...

              Lol I'm not sure if you mean nasty in a good way or a bad way but that second part made me lol. I've never taken this to a track, but I would totally be down to haul some drift spares in this haha.

              I wanted to do something a little different. The center caps don't look very good on these wheels which is why I don't have them.

              Haha we think alike! Well, I'm still on the hunt for some new wheels, If you see anything good that fits that description let me know. I am looking for something with a little more dish.

              Haha yeah! Dude I can't believe that happened! I think it was at the Milpitas meet that got rolled in like 20 minutes flat. We ended up staying because we drove like 40 minutes to get there in the first place and they never came back. The cops definitely spooked a lot of the 240 drivers.

                Nasty in the best way possible.

                I mean it's like subtle, but it leads the eye to think differently of the owner than most vipish cars...

                Like I had you definitely pegged for the guy that goes to the track, rips on a drift car, and says hey, lets mod the daily, had some spares from the race car, and said whoa, these fuckers fit, dumped it, and said "it's good"...
