Thread: My New RIMS!!!

  1. My New RIMS!!!

    Well they aren't new anymore. Got these last spring and wore them all summer.
    One of them got a real nasty bend thanks to ****ty philly roads so I brought it to the rim shop to get fixed.
    2 months later I still don't have my rim back and I call them to see what's up and they said they lost it.....
    WTF, so now I don't know what to do. I'm going to go there to ***** them out and tell them i want a new rim soon....

    Well here it is..
    How do you like the aggressive stance?
    I have Tien Coilovers. The rims are 19" x 9" Moda R8, and I am using Eagle F1 runflats.




    Camera Settings: (exif is intact)
    exposure time: 1/100 sec
    aperture value: f/10
    Program mode: Manual
    ISO Speed: 500
    focal length: 200mm

    Camera Equipment:
    Camera: canon 1DmarkIII
    Lens: canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS
    Strobes: (3) nikon sb800 (yes I shoot canon and nikon)
    Remotes: (4) pocketwizard plusII

    Strobist info and Lighting Diagram:
    Flashes
    1: 1/2 power, ISO100, f/5.6 (pointed at front wheel)
    2: 1/4 +.7 power, ISO100, f/5.6 (pointed at back wheel)
    3: 1/4 power, ISO100, f/5.6 (pointed at the front of the car)

    The stick drawing under my camera is the tripod which was laying flat & holding the camera in position.

    - Flash 1 was blowing more light because it was teh furthest from the vehicle.
    It had to be furthest from the car because if not, it would be in the shots...
    So to keep it out of my shot I pumped up the power and scooted it out of my frame.
    - Flash 2 was in the rear lighting up the back end & the rear tire
    I had the spreader flipped down so it would spread the light and not all hit at one spot.
    - Flash 3 was used to light up the front.
    Without flash 3 the whole front would be just dark and dull with no detail in the headlights and grill.







    Can probably notice the painted red brake calipers.
    Since this photo I have added:
    TRD Spoiler
    Kaminari rear window spoiler
    EBC cross drilled and slotted rotors
    Halo headlights
    LED tail lights

    this spring i'm putting on window tint and a nice clean bodykit
