Thanks for the comments!
It's dropped on Tein S-techs (lower 1.7")
The wheels were $80-something each...with mounting/balancing, tax, ect. it all together was $470
It's a gun-metal finish (obviously) and weigh 16.5lbs (pretty close to stock weight)
Other finishes are white, chrome, silver, and hyper-black

very nice. perfect color choice.
it's amazing how just some wheels and a drop will change the whole look of a car.
nice pay out to pay off ratio.

Hah, I have the exact same wheels on mine with a silver finish. Nice choice, indeed.

I got them at Big O Tires, they ordered them and only took 2 days, and installed them.
Thanks again!

Looks good, Midget. Every time I see a PGM, I'm like "dang!" All you need now is a set of the OneTonGarage hub spacer shims. What is the offset on the wheels?

I can't speak for him, but I myself will be buying 15 inch wheels and I can tell you why.

1. I don't like the look of huge wheels.
2.15 inch wheels are lightweight.
3.Smaller wheels=better for autocross.

They are a heck alot cheaper! And I didn't have to buy new tires, saving more mulah.

Miko, the offset is +35
