Racking my brain trying to decide what to do to the exterior of the car.

Don't want to spend to much here and take away from performance parts.

So I think I came up with 3 options.

I really like the look of stock painted/powder coated wheels so option 1 is

1. Öhlins + Powder/paint stock wheels

I also have been eyeing advan wheels RS-Ds or RZ-DFs

So option 2 would be

2. the advans, and maybe springs.

And the 3rd option would of course be...

3. powder/paint stocks + springs and more $$$ for performance parts

 

I personally I'm keeping my stock wheels till stock rubber dies..
My next wheel will be enkei rpf1 18x9.5 +15 or +45 with 20mm spacer

 

#1 and add 10mm or 15mm spacers to push out the wheels.

 

definately go #1. I wish I figured my suspension out first

 

Depends on your goals.

If you're racing in a straight line, the option 3 is best. If you're racing on a road course or rally type events, then option 1 is probably best. If you're more concerned about looks, then option 2 is the one.

Advans are great rims (I have a set of RZ-DFs ordered), but they're mostly a show mod and a pricey one too!

 

Plan on going to a road course now and then. Going in a straight line is boring. But then again she will be my DD in the end and would prefer a decent ride on the street.
