WHAT WE ALL GOT TO REALISE THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN PERSONAL MODIFICATIONS AND SPONSORED MODIFICATIONS OK, I PERSONALLY LIKED THE COLOR CHOICE JUST THAT THE DECALS WERE NOT DONE RIGHT , BRO SIT AN LOOK AT YOUR CAR AND TRUST ME YOU HAVE NO NEED TO CHANGE COLORS, WORK WITH WHAT YOU GOT. RIMS I WOULD SAY YES CHANGE NEED MORE LIP AND WIDTH.
RECOMENDATIONS:
PUT 19X10 BACK & 18X8/.5 FRONT RIMS ( 2 CHOICES BLACK WITH CHROME LIP/ RED CHROME LIP) NO MORE THAN 9 SPOKES
SKIRT IT OUT, CHANGE FRONT BUMPER (SAMPLE PIC 1) , LEAVE THE HOOD DESIGN LOOK GOOD ,
I ASSUME DECALS OFF,
my boy all your points are well taken and all valid, BUT for performance in D/ca country 19" rims i would say is a no no ! maybe for a pimp out look but not for runnin' plus U would be adding more weight to the car!! my rims are ((BBS 17"x10" and 17"x9" lightweight wheels) only real thing i dont like about them is the hub cap lol, and as for the body kit i desperately need one to really set the car off i would think

A good set of 19s gonna weigh in about the 18-23lb range.
THeres an RX7 running around on 19s in dominica. But less sidewall is a plus for cornering in dominica....but a minus for pothole country

ummm ? did you say running around SCI ??? U know something we all dont know man ? just because it have ONE that WAS running around on 19"s doesnt mean its practical!! besides the Rx may be half the weight my car is lol (joke) since when do we have glass road in D/ca to run on?? and my rims are about 10-12lb i would think its a significant difference !!

I supposed this post has taken a life of its own. I just wanted to highlight a trend in the car scene.

just in case u don't know....the big wheels are better for u cause u will get less wheel spin...oh my bad, u might not even have enough power to spin the 17's like how my teg spin the 18's 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear.
