Arrow ShangoAshe got some new shoes! (Third Time's the Charm!)
Hey guys,

So I finally got my new 360 Forged Concave 10's last week. Since I had a good experience with my Spec5ives which are also from 360 Forged I decided to buy wheels from them again.

These are the third set of rims I've purchased for this car and I can finally say I'm pretty happy with how it turned out! Although there's still slight rubbing issues, I will get them sorted out hopefully this friday! (Some more rolling of the fenders!)

Oh, and my side skirts from Wald will be here in a week or two so that's something else I'm looking forward to seeing installed!

Here are some pictures I took with the iPhone!

Tires: Verdestein Ultrac Sessentas
20x9 et45 (Front) 255/30/20
20x10.5 et35 (Rears) 285/25/20

i'll take a better picture of the front but I don't have much clearance haha it tucks right in there!

I think a 5mm or even a 10mm might be like MAX, it'll definitely rubb too haha

Your ride looks great ! I love the new wheels ! I too would like an update on ride quality once you get your fenders rolled some more ( with people over bumps too ? lol ). How low is your car ?

Also, which wald skirts are you getting ? The regular ones for the 03 or the ones from the black bison kit ( I LOVE the black bison kit, man I wish they had a drool emoticon but this will have to do lol ) ???

I got my fenders rolled and I have no issues with rubbing even with people going over bumps. Only problem is the plastic piece sometimes touches the tire going over bumps. You have to be going pretty fast or it must be a pretty big bump for you to hear it. It's more like a (scuffing) sound then a rubbing sound. Not loud at all.

My sideskirts are here and I'm painting + installing them next friday! I got the Black Bison ones from Wald
