The rims shown in the pics are 20" RVM Viscera wheels with custom british racing green inserts. RVM stands for R'vinci Viscera Machina. I got these rims from Italy when I went to the 2009 Auto Show in Milan, Italy in december of 09. Apparently there are alot of bootleg ones sold here in the US. Mine however are real. The rims have patent numbers and have engraved.... "made in italy". I didn't get them installed until last week. I will post pictures of the trip soon enough.

Its been a while since I have been posting on the forums, as I was finishing up my final year as an undergrad. Just to let you guys know, I have completed my Undergrad with a major in biology. Now comes the dreaded job search. Any help with where I should apply will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, and I will post some new mods soon.

 

Looks great. Does it ride perfectly smooth?

What tire size did you use?

nice wheels, I dont perfer a lot of chrome for mine.....are they staggered?

 

nice touch with the green, that I like!

 

nice looking wheels i like the little color match!!

 

Don't fancy the chrome either, but the green inserts are cool!

 

Nice the green inserts is a great touch, sort of makes it more personal matching the car but can I ask why you dont tint the windows? at least darken them a bit?

 

245/35/ZR20 NittoExtremo 555 Great tires. Rides very smooth. No rubbing unless I got 4 people onboard. Then it rubs over bumps. The wheels are not staggered. Just 20 X 8.5" all the way around. To be honest, I have no idea why people get staggered wheels. They look awkward.

As for tint:

I have been told by many people to have the car tinted. Some say I should do 35% for a light dark look. While others suggest 20% in the front and 5% in the back for a black out look. Personally I don't like tint. But apparently a canadian company is working on transition tints that will be able soon. They have me sold.

 

They/I do staggered wheels to put more tire on the ground.....

 

looks good if your into chrome.

You must go staggered and add a supercharger if you want a real fake "R"

 

For that price, sell the S and get an STR. Much cheaper than a swap would ever be.

lol, once I get a stable job I am definitely going to update the car lot.
