Here's mine with 15" ADR Richocets:





I keep meaning to get spring and shocks, but I had to replace my intercooler, redo my fuel setup, etc...

It'll get done next though, I swear!

stock rims on a lowered car..looks ghetto like you cant afford rims... (unless ITR rims)

Aftermarket rim on stock suspension makes your car look like a mini escalade on 22's

well, I needed desperatly to get new tires, so I figured I might as well kill two birds with one stone and get rims at the same time. I'll get the suspension done soon, but really guys - don't look at every car you see like it's supposed to be a finished ride. I could do it all at once, but by the time I saved up all that money, my car would have 400,000 miles, and I'd be 50

Some of us dont find the need to go out and spend the money on rims as soon as we are lowered. But seriously, what is wrong with the stock rims and a drop. Is everyone in the Type-R forum wrong for keeping their stock rims and having a lowered car? What about the people who do 5-lug conversions to have ITR rims? I would think that as long as the tires are decent, it shouldnt matter what kinda rims they are on. As long as the rims fit the car (i.e. no 20's on a Civic), there shouldnt be a problem. Unless you can back up your answer with something legitimate, there is no point in making yourself look dumb by saying "they just do".
