Different Look For a Lancer
Whats going on everyone. Im writing out of hawaii where almost everything looks alike. I tried a new look for my 08 Lancer here. Everyone here is either into V.I.P style or racing style so i decided to try and blend the 2 together as I chose the wheels for the car. So here it is and let me know what you guys think
they are R1 Racing Wheels - Drift 18" x 8" / 40 mm offset / 3.25" Lip / Hyper Black Finish with the car sitting on Eibach Sport Springs. I tried to fuse the race look styling with v.i.p size lip. Let me know what you guys think ... Thanks
P.S Im not good with photoshop so i tried to fill in where my friends were standing in the rear and its really sloppy.

well we do mostly jus a/v/alarms/tinting/detailing/and basic bolt ons. n e thing needed we can order. yah this is the sport lines. the drop rate of 1.7 / 1.2 was actuall spring height difference and not the actual total drop of the car. they sit at the same exact height as the tein s-techs for our year. after springs settled there is only about 1" gap in all wheel wells, mines is slightly lower cus i did a quick mod to them so they sit lower and have no prob with ride quality. the rims are sitting on nittos invos 225/40zr/18.
