i say, first you drop your car if you havent already...lookn hott w/ the ninja kit but the wheel well gonna look even bigger w/out a drop
tantrums are ok, never really been a fan of more than 6 spokes...juss my opinion...

Tantrums, MR7s, whatever. They're all knockoffs of Volk Racing SS7s.

look's like Ill buy the Motegi's from Pep boys!!!

then I'm dropping my car in about a week. HR Springs are on the way.

Stillen touring lip spoiler , aero kit rockerpanels and rear valence should be installed early spring or late winter.

Once all that's complete....I will be a happy man.

thanks for the help guys

volk wheels

Yes, the volk wheels are way better looking!

It's too bad the OZ superturismo wheel doesn't fit. The OZ rally type wheels are pretty light. These used to not be very expnsive until all of the damn WRC cars starting wearing them. But what's the diff of a couple pounds of unsprung weight going to make on our street cruisers???? If we drive them like a small light car, we'd be buying new rubber ever two months!
