i dont think chrome or big wheels would look good on these cars. 19s would be the biggest. racing type wheels would fit its persona best IMO

20s is still kind of pushing it. i think they can pull it off because of the wider rear body and being a coupe it matches it more. idk how to explain but to each their own. your wheels you pick lol

do u have neons on your car? 20's are too big, giovanna's are heavy. It would look crappy. Now that is just my unbiased honest opinion. You may disagree. Go with what you like, you paid for the car.

yeah no 20s..and dont go with giovannas or whatever those are not performance wheels..they're heavy and not to mention dont look good on sports cars..

if your gonna go with 19s find some nice performance wheels..for all of our sake dont get giovannas or those heavy show wheels..if you pass another import tuner they will laugh at you..

Thanks guys, you have made me make my decision on what wheels that i am going to go with. I am going to go with the AXIS SPEED 18x8 in the front and 18x9 in the rear. I will have a 2 1/2 in lip on the front and a 3in lip in the rear.

Offset wheels on an AWD Car? Doesn't that mess with how the car corners and what not?

DONT run staggered wheels on an awd car unless you run different size tires to that the total size of the wheel+tire are generally the same for the front and the back.

really depends on budget. You can get some nice wheels like volks or advans which'll run ya, you can get some midgrade wheels like 5zigens or enkeis, or you can even run some konigs, ADR's, or Rotas (dont say that too loud though, evoM guys hate on rotas). you should mess around on tirerack and look around this site for ideas. there are some nice cars in here. Just mod with taste, remember you drive a ralliart, not a GTS (no offense GTS guys).
