Thanks man, but be for-warned. If your going with white rims, be prepared to wash them every few days. They look hot and all, but they show every spec of dirt.

If you look closely I think the drop is the same. All the black is hiding the huge gap left above the tire.

It was more an issue with availability rather than fitment. Next time I'll go with 215's rather than the 205's. I just didn't have as much time to wait for a new batch of 215's to arrive where I ordered these from.

yeah i know how that goes , allthough most of the time its because the 205's are cheaper


and somethink they look better , LOL


me i just like the bigger tires cause the fill the wheel well up better , and ride nice


allthough with your car being dark , the wheel gap doesnt look as bad


and i like the way it looks

nice sedan, mine is going to be dropped with some wheels soon as well.

Except I will be running 17" Rota Slipstreams in gunmetal w/ polished lip and 225/45/17 tires.

Already got Sprints in my room but I want some struts...

Anyway, good to know what my car can look like dropped with some wheels.

I've got drag dr-4's also... just got these in a few days ago. Ordered them with Toyo Proxes FZ4 215/45/17 from wheelmax.com, also lowered with progress springs.




I finally got my interior finished....pics on my cardomain site

Sweet ride. I was fighting with myself over getting black rims for my black cobalt, but I was definately thinking about black with some chrome in it. Thanks for helping me make that decision.
