They look good but why did you go with the 17's and not 18's or 19's? What's is the offset and how's the ride?

Thanks. Got 17's because I stay away from big wheels, small (height-wise) tires and pothole damage. These being 17's are light and the same color as the car, look good and the ride is so much sharper. Braking, turning and acceleration are all noticably better. I have to go into Baltimore occasionally and I'm afraid I'd bend anything bigger. When I drop it two inches I'll post new pictures. I thought it was great that SSR's color on these wheels is about 95% correct matching the CL. They are just a hair lighter.

I love the color of your car and the wheels match perfectly. Which drop are you going with? H&R, Eibach or coilovers? I would think you could get pretty aggressive with the drop since you are on 17's.

Anyways, nice car!

The H&R's were my 2nd choice ... but upon further review they should have been my 1st!! The Tanabe are great, and the ride is superb, I just wish it were slightly (1/4 to 1/2 inch lower all around). The H&R Sport's are probably what I should have done! Oh well, live and learn!

Good luck with the drop.

Looks clean
You did right with the 17's, bent WEDS rims around here- DC/MD streets are a joke!!! And you will be happy with the H&R Sports
