Size?
Width?
If bigger than stock, what tires? (I can suggest a few good ones)

IMO, no way...get some black wheels with polished lips. That's the only way to go. Again, IMO.
Well, they make those same wheels in silver. I could buy those and have em powder coated black and the lip polished...
I really love those wheels.

I would say if you get them (which I think you should. They look good) get them in silver, not chrome.

they will look a lot better on a black car. black + chrome = pimp.

john - my opinion, if ur not going to buy some kinda of powdercoated/polished black wheel, go with chrome whether than silver, imo it just looks a lot nicer....also think of the fact that if ur getting 18's...you will probably notice a little slack in the performance of the car

I agree the black or the chrome, Nittos are awesome thats what I have now
slack in performance doesn't bother me. i just want the car to look better. after college i should be boosting anyways. so that will make up for it.

Chrome don't get you home. I don't particularly like em either way.

bull shit. get the correct offset and you should be able to put a 10 or larger. i have 11 inch wheels on my car , correct offset does wonders.
I was reading that shit on a Pontiac forum dipshit. STFU til you know what you are talking about...JESUS FUCKING CHRIST

C'mon guys let's be productive here. So you getting the rims or not?

I love those rims.. And I agree that black + chrome on cars looks pimp.
I'm just not a fan of chrome rims on small, compact imports. But mid-to-full size cars look pimp with it, especially with black.
Just my opinion, but I love them. Go for 'em. :)

Let's not be counter-productive, keep your language clean and your responses respectable. I'm not saying you have to agree with what anyone is saying, but at least be respectable.
Thanks! :)

beating the inside of your fender wells is not bodywork. just get the wheels you want, a BFH, and you are set.
