well, finally got my 17" ADR rims, wrapped with yokohama es100s (225x45x17) on... now all i need to do is find a bumper that will fit this big ass fmic what do you all think?
also, for all you RSs out there with 17s and bigger... do your tires rub on your back fenders? cus i have a heavy ass sub with a big ass box.. and yesterday, i had a three in the car, and when i turned, i could hear the tires rubbing the fender..

nice rims....i was always a fan of balck rims on silver cars.

Yup, used to rub with the sportlines and 18s on. Had to roll the fenders a bit. Also have some subs in the back. I'm on prokits now tho, so no biggie.

I switched around December of last year. I traded with Derek, he's on the board too, lives nearby. He wanted to go lower, I wanted to go higher, cuz of the front (which btw is wrecked already). Yeah, there certainly is a difference. I don't seem to be scraping that much with the stock bumper. About the ride, well, I was a bit more comfy taking corners with the sportlines. My body seems to have more roll, cuz I did a drift immediately after we were done in a parking lot and man, I could feel the car was really tilting. But maybe its just me.
