Talking Thanks to 'sick ss/sc'



these gunny 18s look sick on my 2.4, i upgraded to the 225s so they're a bit wider for better traction.

opinions?

I live in michigan...if you or anyone else is familiar with this state you'd understand why i refuse to lower my car. it's a DD, the roads are full of damaging potholes, and driving in the snow in a lowered vehicle doesnt help much.

the stripes are a catch 21...they look good on there but definately draws attention from the police.

I'm riding on Sportlines, have been since winter. Not that bad I actually have not scraped or hit anywhere. Lowering your car really is not as bad as you think it's going to be.

ah, another michigander haha. ive lost two rims to michigan potholes over the past few months, i hate these roads with a passion. i wouldnt be able to lower my car anyways, im running 225/45/18 tires and they already have little clearance and rub on the inside when i turn.

i really like your car though, where do you live? Id love to see it up close and personal,
