well you can save the images to your computer, hit reply(too the post above you, it will be in the top right corner) and put a few in, then people click on them and they get bigger. or you can upload them all to photobucket or any other picture sharing and hit the image button and put them in that way

unless you like the look of chipped rims, i'd advise you to push the abs over the lip of the rims.

Thanks for comments guys. I some people dont understand the ways of JDM... Anyways the wheels are like that to give it the stretched look and to fit them perfectly under the fender. Drifters do that so they can lower there cars as far as possible without the tire rubbing the fender. It doesn't scratch the wheel at all , unless you curb them.

Also, about the front fender. I have never seen a front fender rolled enough to give it the lip the I have on the rear. And that would just look dumb... Also its an after market front fender, like a D-Max or Orgin, so its made out of FPR and you cant roll FRP. If you need more fender then you just by new wider ones...

Just giving a little education, nothing wrong with your guys comments. peace

The to hook is just a small terminal wire connector painted red. As for the tires, it super easy. Just dont put them on all the way... You push the tire from the back side and when they hit the front lip then your good to go. The tires I use are super tight, you actually have to boil them to get them on all the way. Since they are super tight they will hold their place just like that. The mess is just a strainer from the grocery store, like ones for pasta or when you wash vegetables. Its just kinda smashed to give it the diamond mess look.
