i need help...

this sucks... some of you may know i crashed my car..

see here.

and the main fault is that my sol weighs less than a fat man on a bike... i need something that will help with traction. i dont know if i need bigger rims.. do they increase traction or no? or can i keep small rims and just get better tires?

so whichever the answer is... what rims do you guys think would look good on my car. i have a black del sol...

please post any ideas... i cant decide.

 

personaly, i like these.

thumb up all the way

 

any answers to my questions?

 

ttt

 

I would think tires. what kind of driving do you do?

 

racing daily driver, nj weather.

 

damn, sorry to hear u crashed...Werent u the kid who just got his license or something and was driving non stop lol.....and some ******s were making fun of your "cheap" grill??

sorry to hear.....

good luck

 

yeah my "cheap" grill.. man, i should be more like them and pull a home depot special. but yeah, im him.

 

I agree, tires would help quite a bit...

 

What's your budget for rims and tires?

Tires will mostly help with traction, rims will help (maybe) with cornering due to lower profile tires used on plus sized rims.

16's are about the biggest you should go, IMO. I've had 17's on my del Sol and they were too heavy and sucked. I've heard of people with 18's, but it begs the question "WHY???"

HTH!

P.S. See link in sig for pics of both 16's and 17's! (MENU, then GALLERY)
