The second ones. The first ones look like they belong on a SUV..

Ummm...the Fabulous ones look less gaudy...does that help?

Hey Tool I think the Euroline looks more like scary Mercedes than SUV
(unless you mean the Mercedes SUV's...haahaa)

so if gaudy=ballin then Euroline
isnt VIP kinda like gaudy Ballin too? If not what is the fiscal/monetary difference hahahaaa...

The Works reminded me of this picture of member having_a_fit's car. I know they are not the same rim, but that is the first thing that I saw when I looked at them.




If my only options were those two, I would go with the Fabs.

I'd go with the Works but those Fabulous rims are a great choice too for VIP style.

i did notice i am going slower with my sport max 16
tho i put the oem sport wheels with oem tires on the scale the other day...it weights the same as the sport max....and i thought the 16" would roll faster...idunno why it just feels slower

anyways i went with the FAB wheels...hope it turns out good...


i know 16" fits better....i couldn't find a set i like on yahoo auction...so i stuck with 15"
what tires should i run ? i want my car even lower then with the 16" now

how about 195/45/15 ?

Well, 195/45R15's are 21.9" in diameter, so that will get you the lowest. However, because the stock diameter is 23.4", 21.9" is 7% smaller than stock, so you will throw off your speedometer, and odometer in doing so. To avoid throwing off everything, you should stay within 2% of stock. Since you are going for the VIP look, I'd say go with a 185/55R15. It will stretch a little over a 7" wheel, and the overall diameter is 23.0", which is 1.74% smaller than stock so you'll be fine.
