definitley need the drop, should set the car off nicely then, and give it less of the "i just bought rims cuz i dont know what else to do" look that plagues too many cars. smoking the headlights wouldnt be bad either

Im not much of a chrome fan but I like those wheels. Car looks good and would really be nice with the above mentioned drop.

Those rims remind me of the chrome rims that I believe some of the Mercedes come stock with these days.

Would look sharp with a drop (make that a large drop, i.e. JICs and crank it way down), AE headlights, and window tint.

since you asked.....

-if you plan on putting aftermarket rims on you really should do the suspension first.
-needs minor things like tint and clears which would help the appearance a lot.
-big chrome wheels don't look right on a max imo. and your car is now 2 seconds slower and will probably get worse gas mileage hauling those weights around.
-it might be fun to go mudbogging now while you've got the clearance.

I think that it is going to look hot as hell when you get a good drop on it.
