FYI, to compare....Bitkahuna's car is on fat 19's on HRE's. Look at his to compare.
nice.. do you have any other pics? side view is preferred.. thanks

hmm.. 18s looks big enough i guess but it all depends on the STYLE of rim..

davegs4 - Love your wheels also!! what kind are those?

Try this one:



This is last year at the Dragon meet. I didn't have the lip then. Eibach pro's and Daizen Sways on HP racing EVO 18's.

cool thanks. How much did it cost you if you dont mind me asking? I want to see if the price difference of a set of 18s and 19s are much different. Thanks

well from what i hear 20's give some ppl problems. i have a friend with gs on 20's he never goes to downtown in houston anymore bc last time he dent his rims. houston has some horrible roads. commuting 60miles on 20's i dont think would be a good idea.
