yea the shots, now that im lookin at em, dont look bad. two of my friends, who watched the installation, said they looked good - just too big.
but its hard to tell how far they stuck out from my body, way over an inch in some places. it made my car look like one of those crossover SUVs or a hotwheels car.

plus i was pretty upset with the rough ride. i really am going to be needing bigger sidewalls. ive decided on 17s with 45 or 50 sidewalls - theyre lighter...and cheaper!

I'm running the factory spec tire for the 03 SE wheel 225/50/17 and they look decent i think. Just it's that size is not a real popular one with performance tires.

i think immona buy FREEWAYs wheels. 17x8.5 look simple and clean. plus theyre light
i dunno how they gonna look on a white car tho. chrome with white aint as good as chrome with any color.

can someone photochop these onto my car (or any other white 4th gen)

thanks..

Frank, check out these:

And those Kosei's you posted about before, also. Those Kosei's weigh like 14.5 plbs at 17x8. That is about as light as they get. SSR comps, TE37s, etc, barely beat that.

I like both of them, alot, on white 4th gens.

They're an alloy finish I believe. So don't worry Rockart they will look fine on your car
