Good thing the sticker says "daily driver" so we know it is a road car with these high performance rimzzzz.

We are the "roll the fenders to fit more meat" board...not the "roll fenders to fit 195 all-seasons" board. Raise the rear up some and get wider tires. On an 8", I'd be running the 245/35-16 Toyos.


But I'll say, it doesn't look bad at all. I have an itch for the K7s.....but selling SSRs to obtain Rotas seems so.....wrong.

A first post about spaced out rims isn't going to get you far. How about posting some info about your setup. Which FM kit, ecu, etc? You do the work or buy it as is? Anything custom under the hood?

he already said 10psi.

Doubt he's making the power he claims though, not with a doodoo box.
I'll bet those are just random numbers he pulled out of his ***.

205 whp sounds more realistic.
