so as we all know i f*cked up my car cause im a tart, so now im trying to work thorugh all that while paying for school this fall. so for now im gonna look towards the spring what i want to do next year because i hate working all day outside than working on a car outside in the cold. i want to get a set of rims by next year and put them on in april or maybe late march depending on what going on with snow. but i also want to lower my car a little bit not sure how far but nothing big. (and no i wont put the cai back on with or without a bypass valve). my questions are should i put the rims on first and than lower it so i can see how much to lower it so it still looks good and i dont need to worry about rubbing? also since i dont know how much i want to lower my car i should get a coilover kit right? and should i pay for the expensive kit or will the cheap feel the same?

the rims i want:http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...wheelModel=AR1

 

dont cheap out on suspension parts get quality name brand parts and the wheels look good but IMO everyone and their grandma has black wheels with a polished lip
and how much snow you get will determine wether you get springs or coilovers

 

they are mighty fine wheels

 

i get enough to block my car in sometimes when it snows it can be from 1/4 inch to 10 inches. if anyone leaves around philly you'll know what i mean. 70 one day a blizzard the next.

 

yeah i know everyone has them i wanted black wheels with a blue lip seen them in a mag and thought the looked nice but i havent been able to find any in my price range online.

 

FIX'd

Edit: Rims look cool tohugh I like the design... Just never heard anything bout the brand..

 

I would do suspension first then wheels. Suspension work kicks your @ss so might as well do that in the spring when its not snowing, wheels take like 20min. to swap on.

 

Here's a set of black wheels with a blue lip. They're the same wheels on my car now, except mine are gold with a machined face and polished lip.

EDIT: Here's another set. I like the first ones better. Nice choice on the color combo, by the way.

maybe everyone get them because they look good. lol

you should do the drop while its still not snowing yet. if you getting adjustable coilovers then you can worry about the wheels later since you can pretty much adjust the height

 

i never seen those rims before, im loving that blue lip, im gonna pick me up a pair after i know its done snowing. probably june
