    Not always, IMO. But those wheels, yes. They need them.

    Wheels like weaves, Alpinas (Kopi), Hartge, all look tits capless.

    Now LOWER IT!

                  Thanks everyone for the comments and I agree the caps look much better. The few people that have seen them in real life though, all said capless :?

                  Thanks, was trying to figure out what they were. Anyone know the offset by any chance? I need to swap one of the wheels to the front cause of tires, but the weights are rubbing :( Spacers would fix this right? And where could I pick some up?

                  Yea he told me about that. Thanks for the offer but I think I'll stay with these. Kind of happy I got 17's now since I can get rid of all wheel gap without worrying about my oil pan driving in SF.

                      Thanks man. Unfortunately it still looks like a POS irl, and probably will for a while until I can save up for body work and paint. Pictures don't show the horrible paint and dings everywhere.

                      Oh and do you guys think I should still shadow line the trim. Thought maybe now I'll keep the chrome since it goes well with the wheels?

                        I kept my trim chrome just because it compliments the wheels. I would assume it does the exact same for yours. I didn't want to go for the whole all-out black look.

                          The set I have say et33. I assume they are rubbing on the strut? And yes a spacer would fix that. I am not the wheel and tire expert but I think a 5-10mm spacer would work just fine.

                            Nope, only when I use one of the ones with weights and mount it in the front. This is an issue though since I I have 2 new tires and now one is in the front and one in the back :(

                                Where would I find some? And whats the diff between hubcentric and regular ones? I don't want to end up with tons a poke, although I do like some.

                                Edit: Oh and a couple more random noob question. Will I need camber plates if I plan to drop it quite a bit? Are there any uses for them besides looks and slight handling differences? Would neg camber require a larger spacer?
