$300 for 17's with tires not a bad deal.

It is your car but be aware of people who are going to flame the **** out of you.

I agree....keep it clean....A clean car turns more heads with delight... most don't like heads turned with disgust. But its your car and you should do what you like. Thats what its all about.

i think that putting that kit on will butcher the christ out of your car...it looks amazing as it is right now that you should do what others here on HT would say and put on a CF lip and CF hood, but hey it's your whip so go ahead and do whatever you want to it mang...good luck with the ca'

No because of where you put the money in your car.

99% of people who could really care less about what their car looks like but rather care about how fast is goes. So just beware.

I can't ******* stand body kits and other cosmetic bullshit. That money you spent on a kit could have gone to a turbo kit or motor swap.

Those are the cheapest, heaviest 17's available. I think it would be a waste of money personally since they're too big for your car, heavy as hell and they look like ***. There's far better rims out there that would suit your car more. Save up a bit more money and look around. In the meantime the stock wheels look good to me.

jerbear! 's avatar just farted at your idea... and left the foul stench of leaving your car stock, and buying suspension parts, and some tiite wheels, instead of "not tiite" wheels. ask yourself if your sol doesnt have a b16 already... Can i live with a stock d-series?? if you are sane, you will say no... no i cannot have this... and youll spend your money wisely... with that money you spent.. 8xx.xx somethin... you could have bought a ebay turbo kit for your d-series(assuming thats what it is) and youd be having fun
