Tires are too big on the new wheels. Try 195/50-15 (size I have for comparision). It looks much better and doesn't give you that swamper look.

Also I think the front lip would look better if painted.

Ask BBProductions about the bezel. He has one. I'm betting the frame behind it is probably in the way.
they do you look fat on those rims but 195-50-15 is harder to find in the tire you want, and more expensive

Yeah, I looked and saw they're only available in one size for 14, one size for 15, and one size for 16. There are several sizes for 17 and 18 though. I guess I'm not sure why you need that specific tire either though.

Oh, and yes, he does have it.

lol yep i have it...

interiors changed much from then. but console still there. and buttons etc

obviously in japan everyhting is backwards - what you have to do is this...

the mounting holes/loction being the hazard / defroster switch is whats giving u the problem. one is longer, 1 is shorter.. trim the portion on the console which is longer to match the same thats shorter. then slide in. thats why it doesn't fit because its switched due to it being rhd and u having lhd.

then all should be good. only the clips will hold it in for the top as the screws won't fit... the angle of the 2 consoles are different as well but as you can see in mine its not that much of a noticeable difference.

hope that helps..

ok see thats what I wanted to avoid doing but it seems thats what I have to do-I measured the hazard/defrost post where 3inches and so where the OEM ones thats why I was confused-but it looks like ill just have to cut the post

Maybe it's just me, but OEM > CTR Console?

And I love the so-called "swamper" look, but that's just me. I like big fatass tires.

Keep up the good work chap :thumbs up

I love mine too once it gets fitted correctly lol-bump for a fellow CTR climate control owner

the reason for the tires is I periodically run local SCCA autocross events,I want the stickest tires possible

Looks great man..
IMO, the tires look just fine. Azenis are just meatier tires so they're going to look something like "swampers", but its not the way the tire looks that counts :thumbup:
