The wheels look good, but are those stickers covering something or are you trying to impress the Honda crowd?

Sorry if I hurt your feelings. I've never met anyone with stickers on the side of their sports car who wasn't looking for attention.

all right, the wheels are 15x7 and weight only 11.5lbs.
I am pretty sure they dont make them in 14's, but talk to the guys at Americas tire company.

I paid $150 each for the wheels, and $153 each for the tires. Think I plopped down around $1300 after all the taxes and buddy discounts.

I think they look better than Panasports (IMO).
Very nice.
Your suspension set up sounds very tight..How do you like the Illuminas?

LOVE the Illuminas!!! But even with the shocks set on soft, with the extremely stiff sidewalls, and RB springs the ride is pretty solid. Set it on firm and the ride can become down rite painful over big bumps.

Looks awesome, personally, I like the accents the decals give the car....gives it a sense of uniqueness.
