Ive been told that many times actually lol. Im guessing its the color of my car that probably makes them pop a bit more. I personally like the wheels a lot.

Frank see you post in the right section without an attitude and you dont get asshole responses. Nice car, I like the new wheels on it. The color of the car does make them pop.

I am not sure why, but those wheels always make me think of Kiss... lol

They look great on your car!

And now that I put new springs under mine, it is painfully obvious just how high the rear ends sit stock. And sooooooooooooooooooo work the $$ to put a new set in. My wife said the car now drives like she thought is was built to do, instead of Hoopty Loopy... lol

Although I personally like fan baldes on the 05-09 body style, I agree that the new wheels look really good on your ride. And I love the grabber orange, BTW!

Leveling kit as in only dropping the rear? Some guys do it, it is quick, cheap and easy...but IMO it leaves the front too high still. If you don't want an extreme drop go with some FRPP P springs all the way around, IMO.

I think when dropped those wheels will look real good on that car.

I agree with the guys on the leveling kit. Get the whole car lowered and trust me you wont regret it. It will ride so much better.

Leveling kit meaning 1.2-1.3 in front 1.5 or better in the rear. It still lowers the hole care just a level looking stance. But I might do some 1.5's all around. I get compliments all the time on the wheels when I go out so thank you guys!

Oh ok. That makes sense then. I actually got H&R Super sports and I love them. It lowered the car almost 2" all around and it handles like a dream but for some people it's too low.
