Arrow UPDATE PART 3: SSR Type F Wheels Mounted!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol even thought obstacles threw themselves in front of me yet gain, I wasn't about to go another week without mounting the wheels. On Saturday morning I woke up extra early to drive over to Autoglitz and have the tires mounted and highspeed/roadforce balanced. My plan was to then head home, throw on the wheels, then head to John's (Stanced370z) house to fine tune the suspension and do some other mods. Work problems ensued and I ended up losing my day off


So Sunday after work I immediately mounted the wheels and all I can say is that I am SO F*CKING HAPPY! The stance is even sicker than I had imagined. The wheels are a lot more flush than I had thought they would be especially in the rear. I love the look. And these wheels are sooooooo light its amazing.


Big thanks to Carlos at Autoglitz for the awesome service. And to Harvey (G35_FTMFW) for selling me these sick wheels!!!



***Here are the wheel & tire specs just in case you're wondering:

SSR Type F Wheels
Front: 19 x 8.5 +22
Rear: 19 x 9.5 +22

Hankook Ventus V12 Tires
Front: 245/40/19
Rear: 275/35/19








































NEXT WEEK'S UPDATE:
1. Will be installing my IPL /Aero sides and front lip.
2. Trunk is going to be debadged except for the Mt.Fuji emblem.
3. The fog trim will be painted black.
4. If the oem spoiler gets here in time then that will be going on as well.

Wheels are too dark for the car - there is no contrast to speak of. And the wheels look like they are covered with brake dust and need a washing.

Thanks man, I ordered the OEM spoiler from the dealer. Hopefully it comes in this week and I can have it on by the weekend.
