Wheels look good, but the tires don't look right. What size are you using?

Those rims look very nice, although a bigger tire size would make it look even nicer

Yea sorry about the bad pics. I was in a hurry to just get some pics while she was clean.

As for tire size, I am running 40 series tires, not the stock 45 series ones. I am thinkin about putting the stock michelins back on, but they suck, so I might just wait to get new tires.

The drop...yea I know. I have my Tein S-techs sitting on my floor next to my bed. I am just awaiting my camber kit to get them on.

Overall do you guys like or dislike? I haven't seen any other Habis with Type S wheels and I wanted to get pics up for others thinking about these rims. I will try to get some better pics, but I am a novice photoshooter, and my camera is only 6 megapixels. Any ideas on how to take a great pic or a guide?

It looks good. The type S wheels look good in general.

The quality of your pics is almost never determined by the number of megapixels now. Put your camera on its finest picture quality setting, and when it produces a large photo, use a program to downsize the pictures before you upload them.

I like the rims but you need bigger tires. They look weak and weak is not hot.

I have questions about your camera too... it looks like cell phone quality. What model are you using? 6 megapixel? I would have thought a 1.3 mp on a phone!

Haha...Thanks for all the comments guys. The camera is a Sony Cybershot. I think the reason they look so shitty is because they were smaller and then they were stretched out by the website I used to upload them. I am going to see if I can get some good pics tomorrow. And I am working on getting bigger tires. I feel every F'in bump in the road with these.

Ah ha! Never expand, always shrink. Thanks for letting us know. And they are good pics, just need to get the grain out. I like that first pic a lot. Post the original unchanged.

I'll try reposting the first one tomorrow. I need to get some sleep. I do love that first pic. I think it just sets the car off and the reflection is amazing.
