Got my new rims on from tirerack

Went up to tirerack today in south bend, indiana and our boy spencer from there hooked me up with these. It was $1,400 for everything, couldn't pass it up.

Drop it...and do it quickly...

Then MAYBE it will look nice. Sorry bro, just not big on the flat black look.

I like them, but you are in serious need of some springs.

I like 'em! Tirerack kicks ass!!

But ya, I do agree about the lowering factor, it'll make the world of difference. And will you be filling in those holes in the trunk? Or are you going JDM?

Congrats on the purchase

I'm going to be filling them this week. I know I know, im going to be lowering it as soon as I can. Im trying to sell my stock si wheels and tires to free up some cash, but nobody is interested I guess. Im looking to get either the hfp suspension kit or the ksport

Those kinda.... look like mine. 18x8 +22 ... 245s. Get some red vinyl decal and fill in the inside. Looks more aggressive than silver.

18x8's and only 215 tires? I think they look pretty good. I'd say get a drop but that's the pot calling the kettle...
