Hey guys,

I may be able to get either rims or a body kit in a little while, and I can't decide. I already have clear corners, raised hoodscoop, Sportline springs for appearance mods, but I'm deciding between the following:

Either these rims:

Or the WW body kit, and go wingless?

Yeah, my car is dropped with Eibach Sportlines. I'm leaning towards those rims, but all of my friends etc keep telling me that dark rims don't look good with dark cars.

The thing is that its gonna be one or the other, I'm not gonna get both. I'm leaning towards rims right now, but body kit seems very appealing too.

Im thinking maybe some Rota Subzero wheels? I like those, but they're pretty expensive.

Give me some ideas. I want some JDM looking rims for not too expensive.

rims first. Your car will still look good. With rims on the stock body.
Puting the kit on first gives it that lowrider rc car look:thumbdown

Rota Subzeros are pretty cheap, $600 for 4 17" wheels.

Get rims, but different ones. I looked at that Blacks Racing rim but found out it was 21 or 23 lbs for the 17x7. Way too heavy.
