Default Teg with a kit performance ok?

Well I have a bodykit on my teg, and it's something i really personally like, but I'm still really into performance. Do you guys think 15's would look retarted with a kit? I'm thinking of getting the 15" Motgei Trak Lite rims in flat black. They weigh 9.8lbs each and I'll be getting Yokohama ES-100 tires in 205/50/15 size. Do you think my car would look decent, or just plain bad with smaller rims on a kitted car?

usually 17s go with kits, just to make it look :acceptable: but do whatever you want bro, its your car, could always try 16s

well here's my car right now, but 17's arent my style. I like performance stuff, the only show aspect I like is my kit, what do you guys think I should do?

what kind of wheels do you want? Like that other guy said, some volks would go good with that kit if thats even possible

sorry, not a fan of body kits, but if you got the nutz to back it up, more power to you.

I have no idea what those look like, but 17's wont make you that much slower. You probably wouldn't even notice.

I think you might have clearance problems with 15's because the kit goes pretty low in the front and sides.
Out of curiosity, do you have any type of turn signal in the front? Maybe hidden?

i wouldnt mind the body kit as much if u had a huge *** front mount fit in it
and regular teggy corners molded into your body kit
as for the wheels, if you have the money go for some WORK vs-xx 17's

NOW THATS A SEXY PEICE OF WHEEL
