I see your point FLY, but the good thing is that fty can enjoy the new look on his ride and change into a new set-up later on .... I have been debating going to some different wheels / color combo.... i need to learn how to photoshop....

You can use forza 3 to get an idea of what color and style of wheels would look good.

I like the mods so far. Wheels toughen up the car and the springs dropped the body just enough. Id like to lower mine but im afraid Ill be banging the nose on approaches and speed bumps. Thanks for the before and afters...

Nice look! I picked up some VE wheels with same sizes and offsets (different style though) and trying to determine tire sizes. Are your fenders rolled in the back?

Nice looking car!
Unless you're tracking the car I'd think carefully about adding a roll bar. You give up a fair amount of usable space.
I used to have a B5 S4 and only recently sold it. I replaced it with a B8 S4 now that my 996 is pretty much track only.

Cool

You can add me to the "Like" column (as opposed to "Don't Like"). I love the contrast and the offset. Car looks "Really Bad" (Sorry for the '70's/'80's slang, but I just can't wrap my head around "Sick" as being good. But then "Bad" was "good" back then, so I guess it's OK.)

Right, I think you've proved my point...those cars are more square in design, thus that style wheel flows...seems to clash on the curvy aero...

...end of the day, you like it...all that really matters...
