I know ive been bouncing between different mod setups for some time now. The problem was everytime I found something I liked the price was almost 5k. Im willing to spend about 3k on this car for mods and thats about it really.

I found a rep that had the vmr vb-2 in hyper black with the chrome lip in 19's. Had him put some General UHP tires on them too. Tire sizes are 245/35/19 front and 275/30/19. Im thinking the prokit with the staggered setup and offset should be good without any rubbing issues. Offsets are front et+15 and rear et+22

My next mod is the eibach prokit if trinity would pm me back lol

I paid $1600 mounted/balanced/shipped to my door.

Im freakin excited. Ill have my OEM 138 wheels and tires for sale pretty soon too. probably going to ask $450.

Ill post pics when I can but in the mean time they are the Hartge Reps so here is a pic of them in silver from Hartge.

The tires are fine. same exact setup. no rubbing. I might paint my centers gray. it freakin looks like chrome wheels at night.
