No fool, in order to keep the OEM hubcaps from falling off the OE lug nuts came with these black plastic rings that attched to the center of them(lug nuts). This kept the hubcaps from falling off the wheel. It happened to me years ago when I lost them on one wheel actually...haha

I would say go a bit bigger than 15's unless you plan on dropping it more, its obviously up to you but that's my .02. Not having to buy tires sounds good though but I say 16's.

Re: New Rims & Tires!!

yeah, i would like to go lower, but my Tokicos wont like the lower stance



now, should i look at black or gunmetal?

i like the gunmetal better than the black, but finding a set in gunmetal at a great price might be rather difficult
