anyone running 18's or 19's on a non-lowered max?
 
i was wondering if anyone was running 18's or 19's on a max that was not lowered. please post pics/links. i'm planning on getting 19's but am very reluctant to drop the car. thanks.

That was before the body kit of course looks a lot better with the kit but I'm dropping it anyway.

dont even think about not dropping the car, it looks to funny, and to be honest it loooks so crappy...

dropping the car is cheap for the springs...
and the struts can come after you have saved some money

Most people think they'll be fine with just 18" and 19" but end up getting springs because it looks so bad. Don't be one of them, plan on getting springs with your rims.

whats with some of you members lower the car!!it looks stup!d not dropped!!!seriously!!

1. Handles better
2. Better center of Gravity
3. Even tire wear, more contact to the groud!!
So you save money on tires.

Dude you got a mad drop. Scrape city? I am planning on cutting a coil on my maxspeeds as well just worried about all the scraping. Guess I need to keep a can of spray paint handy.

my bottom two pics on my sig shows my old set of rims which were 18's...car wasn't lowered or anything....sometimes i miss those puppies :(

I think stock SE rims would look better than anything IF not lowered...but if lowered, watch out;)

No come now I dont live in New Orleans any more, I scraped it but that was my fault for not looking just one time. The bottom is bound to get scratched but can get fixed. Keep in mind is made out of Polyutherane so is thick plastic!!

Slam it baby!!!if aint sprints it aint dropped!!

Hah I live in an area where you can scrape stock height :laugh:

Its gonna be fun once I slam it. Most of my friends told me not to slam it because of the scrape conditions around here. Damn hick towns :p
