they match the car reasonably well. not bad. we've all seen horribly mismatched rims(probably stolen)

just my opinion, but i don't like the rims that bend out like that. I like the retro waterjet-cut aluminum rims. on that car though, pretty good

They look good, but you need to lower it now

qft. thats the first thing I though.

ill have to agree with this. makes the car look so much better

and can be better for performance wise - but you said that youre not too into speed - perhaps style?

I would have to agree..I think lowering the car will make it sit better and look nicer...


Vital...I found a really cheap and good window tinter...he charged me $59 for limo, $15 to remove the tints it already had and I think $15 to limo tint the sunroof..

Total was just under $100 but for all that it's really cheap....

did he tint your backglass in one or two pieces? i drive the same car and i'm also a window tinter and that isn't an easy car to tint. i would have charged way more... if he did a good job and only charged under a $100 that was a great deal.

vital..he did a great job actually..and the back tint is 1 piece. I had 3 quotes...129, 139, and 169...and those quotes were without removing the back window tint that it had...

Tarmac 2 with the new Falken Azenis RT-615's

Nice wheels and tires. I have a set of the Azenis RT-215s on my factory alloys as dedicated autocross tires. I like the RT-615s alot, but the 215s were about $30 bucks a tire cheaper than the 615s (195/60/14). I couldn't justify spending nearly $80 per tire for the 615s when the RT215s were $47 a piece when the performance difference was very marginal. Grassroots Motorsports did a great article on super sticky street tires. I think 6 or so were tested, the Azenis finished 1-2 over the competition (615s being #1, 215s being #2).

I also have a set of Rota Circuit 8s (15x6.5) as street wheels (wrapped with Toyo T1-S).

Oh, nice car too.

It's not a chick car. The new Eclipse and the previous gen are. They are HUGE and HEAVY, yet cute and 2 door.
