Rims look way too big IMO. It has potential for sure and I love those RL but this looks like a donk. If you like it, leave it...that's all that matters

Wheels set the car off nicely on a bimmer vibe, but running that big of wheels needs to be lowered ASAP. I do agree, it has potential so good luck!=)

Looks like you raised the car! Get your fenders rolled and pulled a bit, then hammer the inner wells! Bring it back down to stock height or lower... I'm sitting on 20s too and mine don't look that big

My RL


nice to see another Nighthawk Black 2004 though :D and those wheels look GOOD on there!

I know what you're saying, but it looks looks weird when people run low profile tires with tons of fender gap. I was debating on running low profiles too but i'd have to lower it ASAP, so i opted to run 50 series to hold me off temporarily before i get funds to lower mines.

ya wheels look a little too big.

the ka9 is a nice platform for VIPstyle. Something different from the popular gs, q45, LS, etc.

ka9 slammed on some nice fitting staggered euroline DH with a nice fat lip at the rear would really set it off.

Nice car, but a setup like that on a car belongs in "the hood" :)

Drop it and enjoy it, if you like the "soft ride" then get coil overs that offer a soft ride or a stiff ride. I have had absolutely no problems with my K-Sport Kontrol Pros. These cars have tons of potential. Keep it up!

thanks alot, i wasnt sure they would work either but with a lil fender rolling and a good set of camber kits it worked out just fine. and you HAVE to send me pics of your exhaust system set up, i would really like to do the same to mines

an old post, i know, but it looks great. are those the stagger MRR's? also, did you end up using TSX Coilovers from Fuction? I am thinking static drop for now, and moving into air soon after.
