I had an incident with my corrado about two months ago, where the wheel came off on the highway and messed some stuff up.


i decided to get new wheels and take care of some other things in the downtime of waiting on parts.

the old fashioned looking house with the green double doors is my recent investment...

here she is now... and there's a before picture at the bottom.

i forgot about the sticker until i was washing it...ill get that this week

just cleaning up for now, not much performance for this as shes my daily
it's chipped and has boral stainless exhaust, and some bahn brenner piping so itll do for now.

and im close to rubbing tires as it is so i cant go much lower, i just need a nice euro lip.

the old wheels were sold to a honda guy for next to nothing and yes the old owner had the calipers painted yellow.

Sounds good to me, i think its lowered enough for a daily, it looks real good to me and will look a lot better with some type of euro lip kit like you mentioned. Also spotted slotted rotors, not sure if it had them before.
Whats the story with the wheel falling off?

thanks guys...

my buddy took it to work with him and put tires on it.

i got a phone call saying my wheel fell off on the way home.

i'm not pointing fingers because he was doing me a favor and has inspected many of my cars, so i just dealt with it.

the changes include:

-new 17" sportmax wheels, with nice toyo tires.
-Blacked out side markers
-Modified vr6 FK grille to fit a g60
-New slotted rotors, (the old got ruined)
-Black Calipers
-Black G60 emblems
-Wheel stud kit on the rear, (i need to exchange some of the studs i bought for longer ones so i can put them on the front)
-Silverstars in the headlights until i shell out for something fancy

haha... the probe has proxies... the tires on the corrado are a little more "bad weather friendly" looking i honestly didnt look at what toyo tire they are... either way both cars suck if the roads arent dry, so i give up :-p
