also wondering how you went with the respray?
by looking at the pic, you weren't going for the super glossy look? matte look maybe? pretty good effect though.. Aki |

Thanks for the feedback.
Had to repaint because of substantial body/paint damage. The respray sucked. Took 3 whole days, and i got sick from fumes, stripping and putting it back together was the most painful part. Wanted a matte look at first, but decided to spray it with a gloss coat, gloss coat went bad (spray gun settings wrong/ bad spray gun). Couldn't be bothered fixing right now. The dragways are in my garage, they are way too big offset wise.. not sure what to do with them. ?? |

Car looks sick as mate! Don't agree with Lowmicra 16's are a good size if the car has the right height I think. Would look better on a 3 door than a 5 door imo though

Dragways are 13x7 not sure bout the offset. They could be negative??? They are probably close to 0. The ssr are 13x6 +11 for those wondering. They fit perfectly in my opinion but i like it poking heaps.

Cheers guys. Yeah as for tyre sizes, 185/60. They aren't hard to get, i think they are old torana spec tyres or something, i really like the size of them. I got the wheels through jdm wheel imports, good price, quick shipping and good service, provided prompt reciept and invoice. Would reccomend.
