They look small because there are very worn down low profiles on the back and new regulars on the front, hoping to get new tires sometime this month !

there's just something about the slasher stripes that really does knock the ball out of the park on the cross. Weird I know, but for some reason it just does, at least to me.

Justin, the stance looks great, and I agree with what the others have said about the slasher stripes. I love the ones that I have on mine. I cannot tell from the photo, but are they 2 tone like the CICCI one's?

The car looks good, I think slasher stripes look good too. Maybe it's just me, but the "Green House" on this car looks unusually tall? Probably just the camera angle. Or possibly the pin stripe.

holy hell, what brand springs are those? are those the first generation eibachs? your car looks lower than andrew's, even with that low pro rear.

I agree it looks rather tall... i would say its a low focal length of the lens but the cars in the background dont seem to be warped. neverthaless, good find on those springs!

Exclamation Re: Slasher Stripes and Lowering Springs are on!

The coach line ("swage line") looks a little thick and high IMO.

Yah, I would take care of dose rear tyres before they take care of you
