now you need to invest in some springs cause you are going to look like a 4x4 with rims and no drop.

Nice car! I have always had a weak spot for black vehicles. i don't care if it is a ford, honda, nissan, yugo or mercedes. every vehicle looks better black Keep up the good work and soon you won't be able to stop.

from what ive heard is that aftermarket springs dont last as long as stock springs....this is my daily driver and i wanna keep the car for another 5 years or so. I will see about the springs, although i know it would look 10x better.

they will last you dont have to worry. if you put aftermarket springs on oem struts then the struts wont last. so go out get some nuspeed sports and some tokico hp blues and you can get another 10 years out of them. (possibly)

finally got the rims on..i think it looks good but drop would make a big difference. Think weekend im probably gonna DIY paint the calibers, so they dont look rusty. Should i go with just silver or get it red/blue? let me know..thanks
