Would you reccommend that setup to others or are you wishing you had new shocks/struts? Just the springs.

Re: Thinking seriously about these rims, what do you think?
faroutguy- Ive been looking all these up on ebay. Im gonna meet up with one ofmy old bosses tommorrow who has some good connections in the wheel/tire industry and see what we can find.
bh04- I really like my setup. Yea, I would love to have some yellows or reds, but they arent worth 600 bucks to me. Ridea a little bumpy, but its lowered, its not supposed to be smooth. Overall, I definately recommend.

Re: Thinking seriously about these rims, what do you think?
I really want some lowering springs. I will get new shocks/struts. I'd like to buy some springs and put them on and see how the ride is before I buy new shocks/struts. Would I be fine driving on my lowering springs for how long? I Drive a 2000. I plan on getting the Pro Kit after researching and thinking about it really hard.

Im pretty sure my struts are still in tact. Just go easy on em, no hard cornering, etc. They will blow eventually though.

The second rims are a perfect match...It also helps that they've got 5 lugs.

who makes that rim, whats it called, and how low profile of a tire do you need to go with to prevent rubbing with like a 2 inch drop?
