post pics of YOUR 17s!!
TURBOit yo ucouldnt be more right... livin in NY sucks... i even got new tires for my stock rims so i can use them in the winter when these Long island streets get all to' up by the snow slows and such...
and kensuke, DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER 215s dude... like i was sayin my rims are 17x7.5 and on 205's they stick out enough to get ripped to hell by anything and they like to take a "bite" outta my tire on potholes... if ur gettin 8 inch wide, i would go no lower than 225... some rims look more like hubcaps when they stick out from the tire... plus, fatter tires just look mean and handle better anyway... i seriously wish i had gone 215/40s when i got mine

so 225 on 8 inches wide, eh? i'll have to check it out. after i order my rims, i'm gonna take em into les schwab since i get a big discount there.
on another note, i was lookin for lowering springs for the es this morning, and i ran across this website: http://www.optauto.com/webstore/prod...1531&last=1531
i'll have to inquire on the eibach ones to see if they fit the es. they seem a bit different than the ones rrm sells since these ones drop .8" and 1". anyone else know anything about this?

As faras I know there are no Eibach springs for the ES , only Progress. My everyday prices on EVERYTHING are better than that site so please keep me in mind for all your Lancer needs !! I sell the Progress ES springs for $169 shipped.
my bro's trying to get me to get different back and front wheels. says it looks like those european touring cars. i would have to say that would look kinda spiffy, anyone out there have it like that?
