That's gonna make them look even thinner.

I really wish I knew what the offset is on the 03-05 Stratus R/T coupe rims. Even the 17" on the Stratus R/T sedan look pretty good. But the coupe rims look great.

I'm a whore for upgrading OEM parts with other OEM parts. :)

NOOOOO....... :D

you should really do the drop first, then get the wheels... neons look good dropped on stock wheels. check with 03sxt, he has pics of his before the wheels.

I say 16" . Black (w/ polished lip) or dark gray/silver. I like the ASA EM wheels or Rota Slipstreams. 16x7 and slap on some 225-45-16 rubber. but thats my opinion... go with what you like!
