Cool there comes a time in every cl's life.......

.............when it needs rims. ok rite now i got stock 16's and i want to upgrade. I don't know what size though. 18 or 17's. im leaning towards 17's however im not sure because in the future i mite get that new abs lip and im afraid with 17s my car will still be to low and i culd fuck that shit up bad. so shuld i get the 17's and save 100's of dollars, but risk destroying my future lip on a speed bump or juss play it safe with the 18's. i dun know . oppinions would help. Also what color? gun metal or silver for a primrose cl. i searched for pictures and im diggin the silver ones, but the darker ones look hot. thanks.

18's...

you can go to a hardware store and grab some aluminum or metal sheets and cut it to fit for the bottom of the lip...tacky but hardly noticable and add's plenty of scrapping life. lol
