phillycivicsi · 11-30-2009, 12:44 AM

+1 for the axis og's or ol school but i would get 15s i think they come in 15x7.5 or 7

Nick Merrone · 11-30-2009, 02:42 AM

alex get the 002's. their cheap as balls. sexy, 0 offset, 16x8. if one bends or breaks. 85 dollars and you can get another..

phillycivicsi · 11-30-2009, 09:17 AM

It doesnt matter what rims u choose from the list those are pretty good choices they all look decent

BLKSheep5 · 11-30-2009, 10:16 AM

i'm diggin' the title.. the only difference is your doing it on a msm, but, by the end of february i should have the racelands on and hopefully a set for 15x7.5 or 8 wheels. i don't know if i want to go with the every day sportmaxxs or old skool jdm wheels.

frosti108 · 11-30-2009, 10:40 AM

damn, i should have copyrighted that phrase, ballin on a budget lol

CleanNeon98 · 11-30-2009, 11:12 AM

I'm not gonna be low enough to rock 15s.

OBEEWON · 11-30-2009, 11:33 AM

LOWER!!

You have ALOT of clearance underneath. Please get one of those wheels you were considering. Shadow offset and thicky thigh tires kill the point. Drop the back to match the front. If the front feels bouncy check your preload. Make sure you have at least an inch of sag or it will be bouncy.

CleanNeon98 · 11-30-2009, 06:19 PM

Gonna raise the front, it's just way too low for my liking right now. Wheel wise I'm not sure what I want yet, like the pricing of Diamond Racing steelies, and they look uber rugged.

Nick Merrone · 11-30-2009, 06:23 PM

get the diamonds or the xxrs!

CleanNeon98 · 11-30-2009, 06:24 PM

And then again the DR steelies are cheap but the XXRs aren't that much more money and look great...gotta decide what look I wanna do.

Nick Merrone · 11-30-2009, 06:28 PM

I think the steelies are more. but arent they custom?

Daofnawofjwaoi

thats it?!

sleeperSL2 · 11-30-2009, 06:49 PM

i think they start at $82 a wheels. and go up a few bucks as the size increases.

OWENthatsmyname · 11-30-2009, 07:08 PM

DR steelies are heavy. and since your car is already down in the speed area you might want to check out some other wheels.

oh and cut your springs, notch your frame, take out your spring perches, dont be a baby

CleanNeon98 · 11-30-2009, 07:26 PM

I don't care about being lower than the next guy, I care about creating a certain look for my car, so I have no plans of notching frame, removing perches, etc.

Scapegoat · 11-30-2009, 07:26 PM

you gonna be lookin' good sittin' still
