Spoiler!

Just wondering, what rim and tire size are you running? And how much is the car lowered from factory height?

#TBT #Throwback…tuesday…? I found these on the old PC this evening and figured I would share, consider this a most recent pic of my whip circa 2005-ish. In its time, this was a fairly special car <3

they did something right with the X100 series. proportions looks right, the details of the design aren't fussy, yet classy / elegant.

At first I wanted to remove this sticker, but the more I thought about it the more I can't bring myself to. :)

Well. I picked up the car from Serial Nine. It was a hell of a journey, and they were patient with me and my ridiculous antics.

Here is the two pictures I will share until I manage to get something else:

http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps71d768da.jpg

With this ridiculous tire and rim setup most people have probably never seen anything that tucks so hard. lol

The roof line when dumped out is about 1" higher than my 100% bone stock CLA250.

It just looks ridiculous, the best comparison I can think, is like when you used to have those model cars with suspension on them as a kid, and you used to push on the roof, until you squished it. That's what it looks like. lol.

You need 22's, like Vossen or something!

The GTR wheels are gone...:okay:

I regret selling them already, but they were only 20's, and I was looking for a change. Gonna stay with the OEM wheels with winter rubber until spring, in the meanwhile I am going to be deciding on new wheels (and saving money, lol).

I really don't understand modding cars at all, and yet millions of people everyday dump thousands of dollars into their cars.

To understand lowering an SUV you just have to try and understand why anyone modifies any vehicle, reasoning can range; from making it unique, to improving the looks, making it faster, or even just making something that everyone just stops and says "wtf, how does that work" or "cross that off the shit I never thought I would see list".

For me modding the FX went through stages, for awhile it was my daily, and I just improved it and kept it clean and OEM, hence the minor drop, OEM GTR wheels, and variety of minor exterior upgrades. The vehicle has since evolved, it is no longer my daily driver, I have much more subtle daily in my pickup truck, and the CLA when I so desire.

That left a certain amount of freedom on my direction with the FX, so I decided to just have some fun with it, and it has since become a ridiculous entity of its own. The engine, the wrap, the air suspension, etc. For any sane individual, this type of behaviour looks extremely stupid, and like a massive waste of money, but I'm just enjoying myself.
