Its really really really hard to find parts for this car. your car looks really clean, but the wheels look huge. Glad you decided to go w/18's. 19's aint bad either if you do it right. Check ebay for some clear bumper lens, and inspire taillights.

They aren't sponsored by anyone but the government. Welfare checks spent improperly FTL. Fuck them and their hand-out receiving asses. I bust my hump working 24/7 (literally) while these fags sit on their sorry asses and collect money. My sisters neighbours are on Section 8, pay $300 a month for a 2BR house and just bought a Lexus. These shits never pay registration and drive around with temp tags all their lives and get their friends to hook them up with disabled parking passes so they never have to feed the meters, either.
I'm struggling to pay a $3000/month mortgage on one house, another $1000/month for another one, and car insurance on two cars. I have three points on my driving record so you can imagine how much that costs. Fuck these wastes of oxygen.
~Cheers~

They are really nice rims, new tires and no curb rash or anything, they are just a bit dark i think, the gun metal, she wants $500 and my OEM rims for them cause its going to be a repo, so i dont really know how they would look on them

I personally think you could make those work. Whats the offset on them? And whats the tire size? A little tire strech, neg camber, rolled fenders, trimed rear bumper, and a drop will have it looking nice.

on the back i have 245/35/19 and on the front i have 235/35/19, im not that good with what i need for suspension and all that, so maybe you guys could give me some pointers, and what i should do, i will take some pics of the wheels from the top and you guys can tell me whats up i like the rims but i dont want to rub, i have my family that rides with me too. but let me go take some pics i will post in a few mins
