lol

no ricer allowed so no turbo sticker should be on there.
I don't think it worths turbo on an ATX neon, just stay with N/A or swap a MTX in first. That's the majority I heard.
Be sure to post pictures after lower! Cannot wait!

Take turbo sticker off, please...
The girlfriend will get over it... if she really loved you she wouldn't want you to be a ricer.

Go 16's man. You'll get a bit more tire, still look good and fill out the well, and they're cheaper.

they dont have anything good in 16 though

I would like that style in a 16. Personally, I'd also try to find some without the universal bolt pattern too. I dunno, just seems cheap to have a bunch of unused holes, ya know?

try tirerack.com, discounttiredirect.com, or wheelsnext.com

Yeah, you can get a multi-spoke or mesh design in 16s. Maybe not black and a polished lip, but gunmetal, silver, gold, etc... shit, they're cheap enough you can just paint them yourself.
It's still cheaper...Look @ legit sites, not necessarily those weird shady ones that people keep referencing lulz.

^ Well-said. There are MANY wheels that have that same design that you could probably get clearn down into 14" wheels.

Got that right. I look at wheels all the time, even cheap, affordable wheels that people buy by the 20s, and I set goals to save that money and get some. Sub $400 wheels FTW, even though I can't afford them.

wow i love you guys hahah those look sweet i may buy those... thank you for your help guys

MOST of us are on the same budget...AKA cheapest tire in the proper size (likely 3-season since you're getting rims too). I've got zero problem spending $45 / tire haha.

this is why i like you guys haha

Those ASAs are definitely a good looking wheel.
Best mesh design for the price, IMO.
I almost bought a set, myself.
Get whatever tires you want. Cheap is fine if you're not looking to track it.
I hear great things about Kumho ECSTAs. Under $80 a tire, for good all around performance.

i was actually looking at kumhos but i just lost about $600 dollars on lowering, new hub, bearing and allignment soo im a little low on the cash but after i get the car back ill probably slow down on spending.
the onlythings i want now are new rims, SRT4 seats (thanks to ryan), Blueish tint headlights and a mopar rear lip... maybe some sort of side skirts too
but illl post pics of the car lowered in my progress log by friday i promise

ok i am now lowered

Posted: Sat Sep 11, 2010 6:19 pm

Well it looks clean and nicer after lowering, however what I'm wondering is the wheel gaps. Kind of needed a settle down probably.

i know that does bother me but its ok cause i may go bigger wheels
also will these work in my halos?

Depends on your goal. If you want a car with some go an auto will be fine.
