how would this look.....

I am getting a 2" in F&B drop ... would the stock 15" steelies (without the hubs, of course) look alright with a drop? I really like the look of steelies, but I dont know if that would look alright, I mean, of course I am going to get some 18"s But... well, that will take a while. LOL So, I just need opinions

It doesn't look too bad. I did that with some chrome lugnuts and beauty rims when I was going through my "Police of Maxima.org" faze.

Thanks, I feel the love

Heres more pics on my 17's...

I dont have many with my 15's since they're only my winter wheels, which will be going on very soon. As for the steelies, they look a whole lot better dropped than having 18's with a 4 inch 4x4 wheel gap.

But then again most southerners are into that look.

B&G springs... Yea I'm planning on doing the AE headlight mod soon and tinting the bumper and tail lights. No carbon fiber lip for me though.. my oil pan and transmission oil pan have taken a beating from these streets... you know how it is... try taking Atlantic Avenue every day from Flatbush down to Pennsylvania ave.. it sucks. I'd crack the hell out of that carbon fiber lip on the first day. Considering I actually drive slow around the potholes I'd have to crawl to work everyday.

I am however getting a stillen lip... I'll probably leave it unpainted/flat black, I saw it on some other guys car at a meet a while back, it doesnt look bad at all.

They're pretty harsh, I'm going to buy some Illuminas soon and see how they ride with that... if not I'm going to get some Coil overs and call it a day. Atleast I can drop it and still have suspension travel ...

Sorry cant... I was actually thinking of demodding and getting rid of the car but I'm not. I'll just mod it till I get my new car. I'll probably be getting a cf trunk too
