Shiny car and shiny rims. Props to you on both. I think some Advan Super Advans would like kick *** though, but they cost about a thousand. Anyway, nice ride! What size tires? They do look kinda small.

Looks good man!

I Like 16's on our cars. 17's are nice too, but for people on a budget 16's are much cheaper, as are the tires for them.

They look real nice, but pop them back off clean your brake calipers, then paint them with 1500 Deg. Ceramic high temp spary paint I say go black ($6 @ walmart) they will look alot better without those calipers being so damn ugly.. I did it with mine, and it looks great.

paint calipers and it will look awesome. The rims only look small cause of the tires, go lower profile and they won't rub and the rims will look bigger.

Looks good, congrats on keeping rice off your car. There's been some interesting wheel postings around here lately to say the least.

I think the apparent ride height and tire size look fine.

Nice, dude.
