So i'm lookin for some nice rims for my ride. I was thinking 17's but I won't be doing a body drop so i might be leanin towards 18. I was lookin for something black with a chrome lip like these akuma's. I won't be racing so weight isn't much of a problem to me, I'm more into the slower show crowd Any suggestions....??
wait, so you're into the show crowd, but aren't planning on dropping the car? that's impossible, our cars look like monster trucks. go with an 18, you'll be happy. and those wheels are a little too busy for my liking with the chrome in the center. my opinion tho. oh yeah, and what color is your ride? that determines a lot.
my alero's like a light gold color. the black would look nice with my windows after the tint and i figure the chrome will got with my chromed license plate and alero decal.. ohh yea btw this the streets here ain't to nice to a low car, unless u wanna wave bye to parts of ur car in the rear view after going down my street..
Honestly, lowering your car doesn't get it that low where you're going to scrape anything and everything. I have the Sprint springs which drop the car pretty close to 2" and I only just barely rub on the steepest driveways and never on the roads, even the worst ones. The lowest part under the car is the exhaust and my piping is larger than a lot of people have and I have yet to scrape that also. Go with 18's but you'll want to drop it after you see the wheel gap.
Black rims have never been to my liking, but they wouldn't look terrible with the sandstone...
Like everyone else said--go with 18" (and c'mon...drop that f*cker )
