Is that a Kia?

[_AnGeL_]

What's up guys? I'm new to the forum, as well as the stance scene, but I'm trying to get into it. Just sold my old set of wheels and ordered a new set today . I should be getting coilovers by August to lower it a bit more too.

Here's my car as it stands now:





2011 Kia Forte5
Front bumper swap to OEM Forte Koup
Headlight retrofit
Eibach lowering springs (-1 coil in the front)
Vinyl roof and mirror wrap
Smoked tails

Not sure what else, I'm sure I missed some stuff but oh well.

Old wheels are pictured, they were 18x8 et40

I'll update this thread as much as possible. It's going to be a slow build as I'm on a college student budget, lol. Let me know what you guys think, I appreciate any input.

this is pretty damn clean...i would go lower in front though

Thanks, I'm definitely going lower once I get my coil overs.

Clean indeed, keep it up!

Thanks man!

Trying to decide on what size tires I want on the new wheels. New wheels are 18x8.75, I'm thinking 215/40/18 to have a bit of stretch?

Love the new Kias. Very nice ride. The stretch should be perfect with the sizes you gave.

Thanks man!



New wheels are in, quick instagram pic.

xxr 527? those should look really good on your car man....have you gotten around to coilovers yet though? I would have gotten coils first but its your car! What color did you buy the xxr's in? ****please say chromium black!

[_AnGeL_]

no coil overs yet. I'll be getting those in August. The wheels aren't going on until I get the coils anyway . Yeah they're xxr 527s, unfortunately they aren't chromium black :/. They're just flat black, the chromium wasn't in stock and the flat black was (after being sold out for forever lol) so I went ahead and snatched up a set before they sell out again.

some quick pics I snapped yesterday trying a wheel on.
