I know lol it does look like a lot. The factory tires were 205/55, and dont look as tall, but they're bald. The new setup has the same overall diameter as factory, so it wont throw the speedo off.
And if I dont like what I have, I can sell this setup no problem. 4x100 FTW haha

I know everyone's not a big wheel fan or stance nut but how come you decided on 16s instead of a 17 or even 18 and are you maxing out the coils or just lowering a bit?

Oh yea, finally had some nice weather so I hand washed her good lol
I got 16's because of the style of rim I wanted, 16's are the biggest I could find. I also wanted a good bit of tire on there to smooth out the ride a bit. I want the car to function as well as look good.
I dont plan on maxing the coils, yet, but we'll see what happens tomorrow... that's why I got stance, can slam the b*tch if I want
