Ok, So i need to get some new rims for this car to offically set it off as sitting low, clean and flush. I'm lookin to go 5 lug and need opinions on a good looking bronze, copper, maybe even gold color rim. I plan to run 17's...the price range is around $800 I'm lookin to spend unless they're pretty baller then. But So far I've really liked the MB Battles...if anyone had some pics that'd be nice. Thanks for any help, here's my car currently. the black hatch...

I would go bronze. There are tons of wheels choices out there. Just do some searching and go from there.

Please take the purple HIDs out, set them on the ground and apply your foot until they're reduced to nothing.

Car looks good man, but you need to adjust your trunk latch. It sits too low and pulls the lid down too much.

You can't see jack-****e with 'em so they are basically non-functional as light units. This, therefore makes them

I noticed it sat like that after the koukis lights and then the spoiler as well. But from the beginning of all this the dampeners were blown and still are lol

There's always the standby P45R's.

I suggest shopping around for some good used wheels. Sometimes you can pick up rediculous deals. That's what I did. $800 goes pretty far especially in these times.

The prob might just be the rubber stoppers, If not it's just a 10mm bolt...Loosen it and back your latch out.

I'm lookin for gold or bronze color but haven't seen any but they look pretty sick. They kinda remind me of the R33 Rims...

Thanks Tim for understanding lmao
