like he said b4 its just 4 ease of swapping the rears. completely swapping out rear tires off one set of wheels is way more time consuming that just slapping on another set with fresh rubber. i understand where the previous owner is coming from. its not abt style or looks its just abt killin it out there on the track. as far as mismatch goes, he chose some pretty decent wheels ; watanabe reps in the front and ssr mk-III reps in the back. as far as coupes vs. hatches i have respect for both equally. coupes are better balanced and lighter but its way harder to pulloff a clean look on a coupe than a hatch. most of the time ppl go with the levin conversion for coupes.

lol get one of the I'M KILLIN IT stickers.
and ditto on the wheel thing. a lot of drifters carry around a couple sets of wheels and bumpers just because an accident is prone to happen and it's not like people can change tires after every couple laps.

dude I KNOW THIS . i've been around plenty of drift cars . I know a lot of guys do this . it's hideous.

you don;t need sets of DIFFERENT wheels . all you need is multiple sets of wheels .

they can and should be multiple sets of MATCHING wheels is what i'm saying . IMO
