There is nothing wrong with GC's (ground controlls)
 For a beginners suspention setup they are perfect. Why waste $1k-2k on something when your not gona use it. Get coilovers if your hardcore, and go to the track everyday or week even!! I dont see any point in spending that much money on something im never gona fully utilize. Even if you just go once a month or two to the track. The GC's and some nice shocks Koni's or KYB's. Im getting the GC's and some Tokico BLUE's. Thats more then sufficient, for a daily driver and you can still tear it up at the track!!  I would love a set of Tien HA's but spending over $1k i dont know, just for the bling bling factor?? You have to be HARDCORE to see much performance diffrence anyways. I also dont like this new fad where if you dont spend alota money on some coilovers your setup is weak  ... That $3-4 hundred saved could be spent on my motor or something

the 17's only have 5 x113.5 but the 18's have 9 holes, so that it fits the 5 lug aswell. so unless u got a 5 lug convo. it will probably rub the fender wells

i ordered the wheels this morning from www.autoimaging.com . they can get them for you in 4x114.3 in 15's. they are out of stock but i should still get them as soon as the the first week of august. oh, whaiteblur, sorry about that. i've been lusting over these wheels for a few months now. (only because i can't afford the Advan RG's that i really want).
