The rims are a great choice Janizary. It's frustrating to see the mentality of "mob tuners" who do everything that "you're supposed to do" (i.e. -big rims, lowered, etc) without realizing that it will most likely end up making you slower.

Lowering springs with proper dampers eat up all of your available travel so if you encounter a bump on a high speed corner, it compresses into the bumpstop and loss of control ensues..
