Thanks! I love them to be honest!:tongue (2):
The handling is great, i have to say... Even though the rear tires have a larger contact patch the gas consumption has not increased, wich is a good thing. I have definitely felt an improvement in acceleration over the oem 18's though the larger size of the rim and heavier tire (according to Charles from B2autodesigns the rims are light enough 20x9 weigh 27lbs and 20x10.5 weigh 29.5 lbs and to wich i thank for selling me these:tup:).
Next mods: springs and invidia exhaust:eek.:
 
Thank you, Sepan!! Means a lot coming from you!! :smug:

Do you have a little poke in the back, if so how much?

I have a little poke but it's not annoying or anything. It's the same poke that mrlerry has on his FX since my rims and his rims are the same specs...20x10,5 ET25 with a 295 tire...
The tire sticks out 40 mm more than the stock rims. I would say it pokes about between 8-10 mm...
 
^^ Yeah, it looked like the poke of the GTR's... It's kind of a tossup for me as to which set I like more, but I'm glad that you like the new look.. A drop would finish it off properly.

I wanted a set of rims that are between elegant and sport and i think the HR6's did the job. I really love them and i think that with a drop will be perfect.

I like the 3rd to last pic.. With better shots, I do agree with you, I like these more than your previous set... Great choice.

Me too! Plus, it was hard to drive with those 22's on our rough roads. Also the car was felling heavy in acceleration and sluugish...:sluggish:

Wow! 20's look good. I didn't think you could pull off 20's but that's a clean look. I have factory 18 and am looking hard at the different wheel size options, 20 or 22.
 
I have installed the springs since three months ago but i didn't have time to took some pics. I sure love how the FX handles and i enjoy it more and more. Some new pics from a trip i did trough the country with the springs installed.





In a couple of weeks i will have a G37 Megan Axle back that i will put on. I really like how it sounds and it will fit our FX's with minor modifications to the tips.
 
Looks really good! Your wheels had a bit of a poke before, but now with the camber it looks perfect..

Thank you! But it's almost perfect... :tongue (2):In the pics you can see i am on a slope so the car sits a bit lower on the driver's side. If the springs would have gived me a half an inch drop more, it would have been flush with the fender. Anyway it looks and handles twice better than before.
