very nice, i like those rims a lot, what kind are they?? But yea you definetly need to drop it about an inch and a half. My H&R's have been impressive, and they're affordable.

thanks

there Mille Miglia Evo's...17"

Im aware I gotta drop it, I'm thinking maybe KONI's and H&R's....I dont know how to install them though and I'm afraid I'd mess the car up, so I gotta find them somewhere cheap and then pay for labor.

ehhhhh??

Nice rims, but did they RAISE the car? I didn't think if you had the correct size of tire and rim it would increase the height of it. However I knew that it might make the illusion of raising it... Whichever one happened there, it definately needs a drop.. I'll hafta keep that in mind when I get my rims.

Max4speed has those rims on his car

Its black also, has 18 inch millia millias exactly like those. His car I think is a 98 though. Great choice guy!! Your car is the second one Ive seen with those exact rims. You definately need a drop though.

Hey man!

Those rims are very nice. I am considering them for my car, but I have a few questions.

Where did you get them? I'm considering getting mine from tirerack.com. This is a picture of the wheel from tirerack:



I noticed that the center caps have red text in this picture, however you have black text. I like the black text that you have...and I was just wondering if those were optional, or the red are optional?

Also...do you know how much they weigh?

Thanks,
-Nick

P.S. You car looks great!

There was no option for the center cap, thats the way they came, I do like it better then the red though.

I chose them just cause I really like how they look and I haven't ever seen anyone with them, I think just one guy on the board has them on his 5th gen. I liked them from the beginning and wasn't really considering anything else..

I gotta get used to brand new tires and the thinner sidewall, I had no idea they would be THIS different...

I dont remmeber the weight, but they definately feel heavier then stock 95 se wheels, I think they are 21 or 23 lbs, I read that on a site that listed a lot of rims and their weight.

Thanks for all your help!! I won't be doing my rims for a while, but you may be seeing another Max with those rims in the future. I really like the way they look.

Thanks again for all your help!
