yea, so far i am thinking of buying black 16" rims with a red lip, as well as head and taillight (gt-r style reverse) overlays double 60%'s, and getting a new suspension so i can lower the ride :biggrin:
and tint the windows.
ive been looking into all of these, and i am still getting some ideas.
what do u think? :poke:

I am in the desert right now and currently only have an after market Nissan Spoiler /w the rear tail light in the spoiler installed on my car. Once i get back i am prolly going to get 19 or 20 inch rims, Ebach Lower kit, eyelid the head lights, C Mod Grill, Tint the tail lights, and get some after market shocks since the lower kit will wear down the shocks after awhile. I have some money to throw away thanks to uncle sam so why not pleasure myself and hook up my baby aka my car :)

16 inch rims are WAYYYYY to small... 18 + :D

im looking at these 20 inch Vossen's

@jarred
those look sick man, im sure it will enhance the look of ur car! :dblthumb:
@nig 1
ye ive heard alot of people say that 16" were too small. but on the other hand ive also heard some people say that if you lower the car, itll look fine with 16"'s.

im sure im going to get at least 18"s then, i was only worried about the price for the tire + rim prices, specially since i barely got the car, it has new tires, so that was my dilema :gotme

i appreciate the info and tips guys thanks! :)

Welcome.

Two things,

1) You can sell the new tires on here or another site.
2) Go with AT LEAST 17's which I had stock.

I like 18 the best, if you go higher you're starting to sacrifice ride quality, especially if you get a drop.

Welcome to the club guys!
16s are a waste of cash imo!
