ok 18s it is. Okasu if you have the time maybe you can turn them gunmetal, im contemplating between gunmetal or silver. Silver would look cleaner but a little

bland and the gunmetal dark wheel on light car would look more agressive and unique on a silver car and oh yeah tint my windows! Heres a pic

^R u ever gonna lower it? :D

id like to, but i wanna do it right, like cabmer kits and whatnot, and i want adjustable coilovers cuz of the winters here in NJ. i guess id like to get teins and tokico illuminas if i could, would those fit together? i havent really looked into it too much. but i would like to have it lowered eventually. and plus, my tires already rub my fenders in the rear, haha, if i hit something hard enough. the other night i was taking this turn really fast, cuz i love it when my tires get sticky, and there was this small part where the pavement dropped, evenly, but like 3 or so inches, all at once, and i heard all 4 of my tires rub fender, haha, i was like, haha, that was awesome!

hmm for some reason your 17s dont look small. Usually 17s on our sedans look like hubcaps. Im still undecided whether im going 17s or 18s. 18s would look

pimp, but 17s allow for more tire, smoother ride, no rubbing, not as heavy, and hell of alot cheaper. Also if your looking for adjustable coilovers I vouch

for omnipower height adjustable coilovers, nothing but good things coming from people with that setup. good coilovers for like $600-650. The owner

Steve Omnipower I heard used to work at skunk2 and was a head designer of their coilovers, but left after skunk2 started overpricing and using cheaper

materials. A worthy alternative to tein basics imo and hell of a lot stiffer. They even look superiorly engineered.

Go with the 18's in gunmetal with 20% tint. They'll look pimp.
