My son and I installed ASA GT5 18" inch wheels with Hankook V12 Evo tires, drilled and slotted zinc plated rotors, painted the calipers and installed polished grille inserts.

Thanks JoRo, we have to get under the hood next. All we have done so far is flipped the motor mounts, plugs, wires, SC oil and K&N cone filter in the fender well. Headers, smaller pulley and a tune is next.
 
i like the wheels.

holy jesus those projectors are ugly. and your made the same mistake i did: bought new rotors instead of doing a bigger brake swap.

Hey Odi I disagree. The projectors lights look awesome especially at night but are admittedly of poor qauality. Not a mistake in not getting bigger rotors I bought em that way on purpose.
 


Looks good! Real Good! Do you plan on upgrading the brakes in the future ? Open wheel designs like that make our brakes look tiny.

Good point about the rotors looking small in the 18" wheel, I did notice that but you really cant see inside the wheel in person as much as you can in the up close pic. I didn't want to buy new calipers because the old ones were in good shape so we just wire wheeled and painted the old ones. New ceramic C-Max pads and the new rotors brake way better than before.
 
Not sure why. But I like it! Probably cause u went with polished accents!

Nice not to see black all over for once!
