Vote: What Mod Should I Do Next?

[thapranksta]

You might describe me as a guy who likes luxury but likes a little sportiness as well. I don't want to be the average Joe who fixes up his car and doesn't have anything besides performance parts and no luxury gadgets. So this year, I've added a factory molded woodgrain kit, an auto-dimming mirror w/ compass, a factory sub, and a Kenwood DVD Headunit (touchscreen) for the interior. On the outside, I added altezza tail lights (some might think rice but I like), tinted windows, chrome license plate trim, and pretty soon I will have HID equipped SE headlights and chrome exhaust tip. I want my Cam to say "That's Fresh!" on the outside and say "DAAAAAAAAAAAAAYUM!!!" on the inside. I have about 3 major mods in mind now.

Kenwood Nav System
Seat Heaters
New Wheels (17'' or 18'' but most likely 18'')

Here's a picture of my current 15'' wheels except they have the Toyota center caps. Sorry no other pics (my car is dirty and I have been lazy toward taking pictures). lol.



Which would you choose?

[cuttooth]

my vote...bigger rims

[88'cam]

definately the 18's

[edmonton99]

18s

[Waghle]

buttwarmers are nice, but rims are better

[thapranksta]

I've heard people say that bigger rims improve handling. How much of an improvement do you actually feel?

Exactly. May be a performance addition due to a lighter weight, more rigid rim....but other than that

How you can call it luxo-sport with Altezzas? IMO (IN MY OPINION) it is very much rice and sort of cheapens the look. Meh, opinions are like you know what

[thapranksta]

I might go back with stock tail lights. I haven't sold them and don't plan on selling them. I was skeptical about the altezzas but I don't think they look too ricey on my car. The blue body of my car along with the chrome accents on the rear seem to compliment the altezza's chrome and red color. I'll take pics probably sometime after my car is clean so I can see everyone's opinion. Honestly if enough people tell me it looks really ricey on my ride, I just might take the altezza's off and sell them (or burn 'em, lol).

[ECale3]

its not the rims that improve handling, its the new tires that generally come with them.

On another note, altezzas look terrible on everything, including IMO the altezza.
