      I have to agree.. those look much better than the "bling bling" rims you posted in the previous picture.

      As always.. do it right the first time and if you can't afford to save more money until you can. I see so many cars ruined because people don't have the simple will power to save the nessesary amount of money to do it right the first time and 9 times outta 10 never redo it right the 2nd time.

      I like trying to get a good deal or cut corners but if I feel it's going to compromise quality I usually make myself wait.

        About those chrome wheels that "un-torque" themselves.

        Now we know that it's the friction of the nut against the wheel surface that keeps it tight and not the clamping force.

              I can post a picture of my parking space with no oil puddles from my own car.

              Just because some idiot at a machine shop forgot to put a oring in gives you NO GROUNDS to call my stroker butchered, particularly when it is the highest output single throttle 2.8L m20 around. Your's and no one elses here can touch it.

              You've got no real ammo, and not a leg to stand on. So again, go fuck yourself.

                    Haha. You're just jealous because most healthy 2.5's would beat your 2.8L

                          I saw a guys car with them that looked good but they were 18's and I think that the one's without the center look are nicer I just need to make sure that they come in 16's.

                            what offset are they? I dont like the chrome, but they would look alright in gunmetal or silver.

                                The bigger and wider the rim is, the lower you need to go. If you are only lowering an inch I'd go 16x7.5" max with 205 or 225 tires. 17"s need at least a 2" drop, or the thin side walls just look bad with all that fender gap. Same goes to 16x8's and 16x9's.

                                Let's drive fast and have fun.
