    Looks good, but you need to spend some more time on your paint. Hopefully you can bring back a nice deep shine... All that being said considering it's an eastern car it's in great shape.

            dude im not down with the Andre type tire size picking, Next summer I might get new lips and make them 16's
            you can't change the diameter, only the width when changing lip sizes. You'd need new barrels as well as lips to go to 16's and at that point you just bought a whole new wheel minus the bolts/center cap ;)

              Are you sure? I always thought the spokes were the same on 15 and 16" RS's. You can get larger hoops, with more of a standoff from the spoke to the rim lip to make it a 16".

                RS and RM barrels are the same as far as I know.

                Therefore 16" Lips can be attatched.

                I could be wrong.

                    you sure about that ;)

                    My bad, I thought you had RM's (2 Piece) but I went back and looked at your pic again and you have RS centercaps. So you are correct, new inner and outter lips would give a 16" wheel. The RM's can only have the outter lip changed.
