Looks like you should fix your front end first. Gonna fit 20s with it slammed? Looks like your already tuckin' 16s.

I don't like any of them except the first one... but none of these wheels except #4 will look good on a car like that...

Why? It's faster than rice burners and most other cars I see driving around. Awd turbo at 17psi and the sweet sound of being a straight piped 5cyl.

The rims get bigger but the tire stays the same hight.

To be Honest, If you car is as fast as you say it is, I would get a paint job and new grill and tint the window's! This way you dont just put all your money in the rims like a hoodrat.

I'm doing that I have the tint already just have to put it on and lowering it which I already have the shocks just not on eather. Then doing the rims soon once I sell a few quad parts and prob going to find some one to paint it probably eather black, yellow, silver, or blue and get a stock spoiler for it and a lip kit for the front bumper. Only thing I did so far was straight pipe it, intake, and up the boost and add a siren and under cover police lights for show. Have to get a boost gauge holder to. Need to replace the head lights to they got smashed. Have a new rear end for it and new rad for it I still have to put in. Thinking about maybe molding on a low cowl/scoop on the hood to but not sure because I dont want it to end up looking ricy. :macho
EDIT: Just got new head lights and a blue film to put on them and a loud HKS blow off valve and a new better turbo controller going to boost it 3 more psi to 20psi :devil:

Dude, I'm sorry, but genuine tuners TUNE their cars.... RICERS make slow cars sound and look fast. I am not against tuners, I own a STI, and a Newer Civic SI, along with a Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, and some other older muscle cars.... SO i've been around the block with the tuner vs muscle arguements... they are pointless, so i won't got their. BUT slamming cars, and adding big rims, suicide doors, DYI window tint, those stupid H.I.D headlights, tinted headlights/brakelights, stupid loud blow-offs, sound systems, spoilers, ground effects, neon, etc.... Its all for RICERS, and losers... TUNERS, spent hours doing the best they can to make there car look as good as they can while keeping it stock in appereance, but being a freakin HP monster under the hood... Ive seen stock looking STI's cranking +600HP and you wouldn't know it if you line them up with a completely stock one. Its the fun of making cars fast, so people never see it coming. People never would guess that my hush puppy grand prix is being pulled along by a Supercharger pushing 17PSI, well over 500hp... and the car sounds stock. So, add all your glitz and glam, but its a-lot like a blonder girl, SHE's GORGEOUS and hot and has a fine @$$ and all you wanna do is get some of that, then you actually spend time with it, then find out she's slow!!!!!! HA HA

Umm my car does look stock idk what your trying to say... I'm not adding a body kit and what not other than a "stock" spoiler that's not on mine. The hood im not sure on adding a cowl or not. My head lights are stock just putting a $9 blue film over them and blacking out the rears. HKS blow off valve I just baught is good for turbos. The radio in the car sounds nice as hell stock so not doing any thing to it. Putting my Tint on the windows. And dropping it to about 3" off the ground. And for rims yes im changing them every one from ricer to a pro racer runs aftermarket rims. Not huge rims prob 19s, no bigger than 20 no smaller than 18. And the car at 20 psi should have 300+ awd hp going by other people with the same car and mods. Going to make rwd instead of awd to for fun but not till spring. Cars not slow at all. In a drag against my bros gxp V8 Guess who lost? Him.
^ You are so utterly full of crap your turbo brick which weighs easily 1.5x what a pontiact with a v8-beat that same pontiac. I mean its possible if he let you have 5 car lengths headstart maybe lol.

Has everyone forgot you're talking SLOW? This is comin from a guy who had an eclipse on 20's with a house door for a spoiler, neons, and blue interior. LOL

Judging by the rims you posted, you may like the kmc 651 rims. Plan on getting them for my blazer

What do you mean not putting big wheels on it? On a car a 20 is huge, if you want it too look go go 17s or 18s, that will save you some money on wheels and tires and look and ride better. If it was mine I would make it a sleeper, but to each his own. Its yours, do what you want, if you dont want others opinions then dont ask, and if it bothers you, then you better just leave it in the garage because Im sure youll get the same responses from people on the street.

People with Ricers, like Spastic are usually just attention junkies... So whatever. If its not him, it'll be somebody else...

People like him never learn, for one if he has that much power (which i doubt unless I see a dyno sheet) then the bigger wheel he gets the smaller side wall which equals no traction. Which equals rough as hell ride, which equals slowing him down because of the weight of the wheels. More rotating mass means slower car OP. Think about it...

Hell I just switched to a 35'' tire on the truck and she's still breaking 12's! Time for some proxes on stock wheels, built tranny, and see how she does in the diesel nats this year at numida.

Yeah i'm not going to go 20. Can't find any rim/tire deals best i found was a set of used ferrari's. Just going to buy stock size set till I can find a deal.

A turbo awd 5cyl lowered with a stock body, tint, and performance mods is a rice car? :huh

Idk Last time I went from 16" to 19" rims I went down 15-20 lbs. And how would there be more rotating mass the rim gets bigger but the tire stays the same height just thinner. And awd helps make up for the less rubber.

I'm not going to argue cause obviously you truly don't understand what it all means. Also if you went down 20lbs you paid serious money for those wheels or I'm calling serious bs on that. Awd fwd rwd doesn't matter what it is, less rubber hurts performance period.

There was almost no rim they were aluminum racing heart Z5000s.

I am with you on this one... I never dreamed i'd say it. But I've never seen wheels make that big of a difference on a dyno... It all comes down to side fall flex when it comes to handling.. OBVIOUSLY you want a good mix of side wall flex... ETC... I could go on all day...
