    I must admit that I am a little excited to know they'll be white instead of polished

    I hope it all goes smoothly from here man

    Got some brand new nitto neogens 215-40-17 for my EXTREMELY slow wheel build.

    And this weekend I finally removed all of the old sealant from the barrels to get them ready for
    The build this Friday. This weekend my car should finally be sitting on rs's this must be the slowest wheel build ever

    Is there any room on the hubs of the front wheels to mill them down a few mms?

    Also did you get the bolts from tunershop?

    There is room yes. But the tiny bit of poke is the stance I was going for. If anything I might slightly pull the fenders a little little bit just to sit on rim. The pull would probably barely be noticeable. Less than a half inch. The bolts were restored along with the rest of the wheels I just cleaned them up alot. The only thing that was Bought new were the 2 in. Front lips which were from tunershop.

    If your gas cap light comes on even if you think you tightened the cap, try pulling on the cap as you tighten it. Worked for me.
    Help us with suspension specs!

    words are not enough.

    Do you have any hi res versions?

    Lastly , I think the OEM Euro tinted R32 tails will finish your car off perfectly

    I hate this thread , ever since you've done the RS' I am having bad thoughts of trying to sell the CH-R's and my suspension to get coilies and white centered RS' for my car

    I cant remember if it has been mentioned , are your RS' , 17" or 18"?
    If you ever sell , lemme know
