Plans for my Type S, need help.

Hi everyone,

I need some help with a few topics, maybe you guys could help me out.

Well right now i have Snow tires, and TL rims. While its still winter i wanted to get my 17" Type S rims Chromed. Could anyone refer any places with websites?

ALSO i wanted to know if its worth it changing my tires to 225's, for JUST SUMMER driving, something thats good on dry and wet, and obviuosly better than stock?
Any suggestions?
Could I, and should I sell my stock Tires?

Thanks, in 4 months my type S is gonna have 17" chrome type s rims, a spoiler, springs, sways, intake, and headers.

I keep spenging my money on partying, girls, and stupid things. And i start University in September so i wont be able to work anymore, so i am gonna get this stuff done before i have to quit. I already had to take a step down from the place i work cause i was finishing off school, and the work load was getting too much.

sorry so long.

amir howabout this and it would be cheaper...no offense but chrome is done...think about having a similar company poilsh the inner sections of the spokes and maybe even the A on the center cap that would look sweeter and weigh a hell of alot less and 45's think toyo t1's brigestone so2's

If you have the money for it I think that u should definitely go ahead and get the tires and the chrome while u can because u will regret it later. Hey by the way TYPER
why did u say that chrome is done ??
if u want RACE rims lightweight easy to break then they are nice and there are pluses and minuses BUT CHROME IS THE HOT SHIT. chrome is all about being flashy and they look hot, shine, twinkle and glisten like my ice. its all about PIMP

Put on Some Toyo T1S or RE-730s on stock or lighter 17" wheels (you may like the 18" wheels -- they are very cool looking). The new rubber will really hook up.

I'm starting to think that some of the super speed masters would be going even faster with really light wheels and super sticky rubber. (I think BeatYaAll may need some street legal racing tires.)

The Comptech headers are very cool (I want them -- everyone so far loves them). You might want to check out the Comptech springs/sways.

1. Tires (pay the piper)
2. Headers
3. Springs or Sways
4. CAI (Cold air intake)
..
..
N: Electric supercharger or V-AFC (The electric supercharger is bit over the top].

Places:

WheelWarehouse.com and others (wheels)
www.autocarparts.com (Comptech, CAI, V-AFC)
www.TireRack.com (RE-730s etc) NO Toyos
www.toyo.com -- look up local dealer but check prices 1st (There will really be a lot of difference in prices out there.)
