Im not going to do the usual "hurts performance" thing b/c I just dont care what you do to your car. But me personally, I think thats just a liiiiiiitle too much rim for my taste. I do like the mesh look though. Im a 17" fan with a 1 inch lowered look fan. Maybe 18" but I havent found any that I really like in 18" that dont weigh a little more then Id like them to or cost my right ******** (Im fond of it thankyouverymuch. ) All and all Nice car. Enjoy

Nice rims but why not 20's? (jk) $5K spent on a car that's worth maybe $15K on a good day? I guess my priorities are screwed up.
That's alot of $$ any way you slice it. Watch out for chuckholes 'cause all it's going to take is one............I think big rims look great on our cars, it has something to do with the lines being able to accomodate them without looking like you are trying to make a fashion statement like most vehicles. They don't look out of place at all. Right on.

I'm sorry just because the "fit" under the wheel wells..doesn't mean they are a nice fit.. I've seen about 4-5 FD's with 19's..and up close too..not in pics...and frankly they are TOO BIG. They are really for show only !.. 18's would be the max I would ever imagine going.
