Talking Enkei M52 on Pedders/Victory Red!

******Updated pictures with SSC springs below*******

I think they look sexy, I do wish I was lower though. Maybe in time I'll get coil overs, but I'm digging the look!

My car is still dirty from the snow, so I'll get to cleaning probably tomorrow.

Thoughts, comments, questions?






Updated images with SSC Springs

I like your stance, what are you on?

I used to be on SSC springs, but sold them and got Pedders, now I'm thinking about going back to SSC because the ride is close to stock and the route I was gonna take (Pedder Coilovers) I hear are more comfy than stock or at stock level too. So I wonder if I can get a decent look at a fraction of the cost.

If I go Pedder Coilovers, I will probably have saved enough money to get them at the end of the year. If I go SSC I can go lower now.

Decisions decisions.

I'm on cancucks. They honestly ride just like stock. I really didn't notice a drop whatsoever until I had them on for a couple months. Looking at pics though, the car definitely sits nicely. i have more pics of my car if you wanna look me up on instagram. @wert842

Awesome wheels!!

Enkei came out with them right after I purchased my EDR9's.

I was pissed, because I really like how these wheels look.

So far there's been two that don't like them that I know of

I paid $780 after all said and done. I wanted PF01s but after I saw these on Tire Rack I said WTH, save several hundred dollars and add very little weight. I lost more weight than these put on so I figure give and take I think they're about the same weight as stock, on the plus side more so than minus though. Had my buddy at discount tire order them up and install them for me.

Nice!

I weighed my stockers with tires and they came in at 46.4 lbs.

My Enkei EDR9's with tires weighed 47.6 lbs. Not too much heavier.

I think your wheels and my EDR9's weight about the same (22-23 lbs).

I think you're right, like I told some local buddies I was 2 seconds away from going matte black but decided against it because I was worried about tire fade while on black. I ordered SSCs last night (hopefully the same as CM springs) so should have Pedders for sale soon.

Couple more style mods left

Thanks everyone for the thoughts and opinions.
