These were my 17's on 215/45/17. I think they look like crap without a drop.



Here are my winter steelies (185/65/15) with my drop. I think it looks better than 17's without a drop.



Well, this one's is obivious. Its my new 17's (205/45/17) with my drop.



IMO, I would drop the car first, then get rims. IMO a drop car without rims, looks better than a car that looks like a 4x4.

Where I live, the roads are HORRIBLE... So I dont have a drop (yet)
But im riding on 215/45/17's and it actually looks pretty good on my sedan.
It would obviously look better with a drop, but not nearly as bad as a 40 series would w/o a drop!

I'd drop it.. you can feel the difference immediately, it corners so much tighter.
