Has anybody have any first hand experience with this? how did you attach the damn thing?

hooter · 03-09-2003, 11:56 PM

Zip ties.

The lip doesn't fit. Its too wide and there will be gaps between the lip and bumper. Just zip tie it into place and it will look passable.

Shweet, thats what I figured, I test fitted it and there seemed to be a bit of gap here and there, i'll try it

how much trimming would it take to "make it fit"?

also, for the shiny s13, try some tire-black-type-stuff on the lip to make it look more showy

Digity · 04-08-2003, 01:23 PM

Yay, i finally got the lip on after months of lazyiness, pic is a bit dark though...

There is gaps though, but what the hell...

Damn thats clean. I want to marry those rims. So beautiful!!

Digity · 04-08-2003, 02:59 PM

hehe, thanks, don't think i'll be divorcing these wheels for a while

wheels are tough to clean though especially around the rivets.

i have a clean set (4) of XR4s as well, 15x7.5 +5 brand new pretty much (1 year old)

Hey Dousan

They are 15x6.5 +19 offset, i had to run 5mm spacers so they wouldn't hit my calipers (180sx off the clip) , for some odd reason they look wider than that though, your lucky, I've seen yours in pics, looks pristine! mine came with odd rust spots all over so i had to use metal cleaner to clean them up, but again, polishing around those rivets are annoying. I've had them on for about a year now, and so far nothing but flames from around here

'whats with those truck wheels??' but who cares right? haha...

Dousan_PG · 04-08-2003, 03:10 PM

oooh yeah! i forgot haha..i got a bad memory
yeah truck wheels?WTF! haha..oh well
