Blue bulbs in the corners light kill it. Other than that, I like where youve gone with the car over the years.

Looks good. I agree with the others about the blue corner light.

The first picture is the best. No photoshop, correct? The other two pics look dirty.

In my experience as a shutterbug, trying to coax an HDR "look" out of a single exposure is difficult at best and most of the time destroys the image.

Using a steady tripod, bracketing, and a good piece of software (I like Photomatix Pro) yields the best results. I'm not a fan of the "cartoony" looking HDR's.

Cars looking much cleaner now days, horrible HDR pics though. The one where you photoshoped the removed door handles and door strips looks pretty bad as well, not very clean you can totally see where youve touched up the photo.

Needs a better combination of width and offset, those look wimpy

Whats the offset on those wheels?
Im not sure wheel spacers are going to help much,they will push them out but your tires look to be to narrow and the wheels themselves are bit too narrow as well given their height.
19x7.5 is an odd size for 19's. 19x8.5 would be a better match up.
Hard to say though untill you get those spacers on i guess.

unsure of the offset but they came off of euromaxima's car. his car was bagged, so he need narrow wheels. my buddy has a set of 19x7.5 with the same tires, and 25mm spacers, and his i30 looks great

But you dont know if your offset is the same so it may not look the same.

But like I said, untill you put the spacers on you wont know.
What size tires are you running?

I measured, and thats what I came up with. also had my buddy measure, thats what he got to. I didnt just randomly order some spacers. my tires are 225/35/19. they are narrow, but i dont care. my nittos grip great. and i dont do any kind of racing so i dont need some really wide tires, with a big contact patch.

I agree with Flava. Its not just offset that's the problem. Wider wheel looks more aggressive, especially that size. If your car was lower (much lower) than I don't think it would look as weird.

Point: Sell the wheels and get something wider
