4th Generation New Wheels Installed!

I finally got some new rims. I never thought I would end up getting rims since they're one of the most expensive mods that I want. Anyways, just picked up a set of rims and tires from a fellow TN member and installed them today. They're Konig Tantrum's 17". I'm thinking about painting them black, what do you guys think?







Pictures were taken with my phone so they're low quality. I'll upload more tomorrow.

Nope, no center caps. I'll plan on getting some when I get some more money. I took a look at the konig site and there's too many styles to choose from, can't figure out which one to get. It's also hard to mod the car when you're a college student.

keep the color.. it matches your car perfectly.. if you painted it black it may end up making your car looking like a ricer towards others.... :P

but very nice decision! I wish I had that kind of $$ for new set of wheels

I guess I'll keep these the way they are and pick up some center caps. I'll be sure to post some better quality pictures later today. Thanks for the advice and opinions!

I think the style is overplayed, but they will look nice if you lower the car

Well these have been out for a quite a while, but it seems that people are moving on to a different style of rims (mesh, double spoke, etc.). I'm already lowered on Eibachs and KYB's but I'm looking for a bigger drop and a stiffer ride. I don't have much money now so those mods will most likely be done during the summer when I start working again.

Thanks. At first, I was just getting these to temporarily replace my stock steelies but now they seem to work well on this car so I might as well keep them.
