a nice set of flat black 16" rotas would look killer though. modernperformance sells them.

I like the first set, but your car definitely needs lowered and something done with the yellow calipers first.

Keep an eye out for a set of used coilovers, you can usually score some nice ones for around $600-$700 and it makes a world of difference in both looks and handling.

I could def see that car with the first set or rims...with some nice lowering springs to compliment it as well...and if you decide to get rid of your stock wheels, let me be the first to kno :thumbup:

I say niether, cheap black wheels with polished lips are like a default aftermarket wheel, and usually a lot of them are really ugly, and as far as the lip....its just weird on a fwd car, unless your running 255 hoosiers then having some lip is BA.


If you want black wheels the motegi track lites are pretty good looking and and really lightweight and not terribly expensive, but the SSR type C are really sexy and amazing quality! Both similar though

I agree with DevilmeaT. Go with Rotas.

It says those wheels are light but I didn't see exactly how much they weighed listed anywhere which would affect my decision. I like the way the first set looked better if you are set on one of those 2.

Rotas are nice if you are on a tight budget but it sounds like you can afford forged wheels. I personally wouldn't go over 17" even though a forged 18" will weigh less. Even if I had a SRT-4 I would probably get forged 16" wheels that weigh about 12lbs each.
