SSR makes great wheels also. Be sure to research them as well.
Don't forget, it's not what you're car is rolling on...It's what's rolling in your car that matters.

Re: Wheels

I like those rims. Looks like the discontinued the Hyper Gold P1's or something, those are sick.

I intend to up the suspension also. But new light-weight, forged rims is a good way to get slightly better performance, and look good.

After a while I am goping to swap internals, but only when I am satisfied with my abilities and the cars performance around the trwisties.

I am not adding anything to engine excepting maybe a cai, other than that it is all swaps.

LOL, I was refering to the picture I posted as to what should be in your car.
But yes, lighter wheels are more important than bigger wheels. Bigger wheels can actually worsen performance.

Re: Wheels

ah. It would be nice to have that in the passenger seat. I wonder if I could get that in an "as seen on tv" package?

Now you're talking bro. It ain't about Import vs. Domestic, NA vs. Turbo,... It's all about the Poon-Tang brother, it's all about the Poon-Tang.

Re: Wheels

you can, but you need a good size offset to avoid rubbing.
