Sounds good. Just with the rims, get the aftermarket copies for e-series offset. Genuine ones need spacers, which are illegal.

yeah those monty's are nice and it only takes a little work!
16inch FTRs look sweet in my opinion (I'm a little biased) plus I'm not into huge rims myself, dont go too far lowering in my opinion otherwise speedhumps will appear evil very quickly, plus the 2 1/2 cat-back is good too. my baby: cost me $4500 already with 2 1/2 cat-back (single muffler), LPG & tint $550 for a set of 5 FTRs in mint condition $150 for a set of xr6 springs So you can get places on a budget, but also dare to dream about what it could become |
