Picked up my wheels this morning and took a couple pics. Sorry for the poor photography and weak cell phone pic. Big shout out to Brad who nailed the specs on the fitment i was looking for. It looks much better in person. Looks like it needs a drop in the pic though.

Enkei Raijin in Hyper Silver (to match my window trim), 18x8.5 ET35 squared, wrapped in Michelin Super Sports 225/50/18 all around (eventually going to a 245/45/18 all around)....

Right on!!! Those are one of my top favorite wheels. Fantastic!!! Blnewt has helped me in any number of situations. I should just stick a picture of Crazy Joe Divola on my center caps in honor. LOL.

Hey guys, so I know many of you know about the bubbling in the headlights after modding them. I confirmed that it is indeed the sun beaming off of the projector lens. I'm going to do this until I decide on what I need to do. Maybe get matching towels lmao I hate over lays but I'm think it can help. Maybe tinting the outside will weaken the sun before it gets to the projector lens. What do you guys think?

The half tint, half no tint look is bad. Either don't tint, or sack up and run an (illegal) equal tint front and back.

Haha, it doesn't have to be equal. A lesser front tint combined with higher rear tint can balance out quite well. Plus it keeps the pigs from squirming too much.

Mine is the same way. My car is black too, so it attracts a lot of heat from the sun. The tint is more practical than cosmetic in this case. If its also able to keep the cops from having an extra excuse to pull you over, its worth the cosmetic sacrifice.
