    I like em. I'd change the color of the lugs though. They look red to me, not sure if they are or not.

    lets just say them carbon lips dont hold up for to long. Im tryin to decide whether or not i should get a type r style carbon fiber lip kit, or just the type r plastic one. If i get the plastic ones they will be painted when i repaint the car.

    just go with the abs plastic if you are going to paint it. theres no use to get CF and its gona be painted and it has about teh same durability as abs plastic

    Looks a lot better Buuuuuuuuut, you still need to go lower When are you gonna get your hands on some omni's? BTW, don't roll your fenders!! That'll be the worst mistake ever!! Take from me and my personal experience There's no need for the fender rolling, you'll be just fine

    those wheels will just get tucked under whenever you drop it. they're not wide enough to be hitting the fender or anything major to where you NEED to roll them. i bought some sportmaxx and rolled my fenders i had to jack my up so high to get them wheels to fit. i literally threw them on, pushed my car up the drive way, and took them back off and then HATED the way my fenders looked. i had to buy a new driver side fender haha.

    now, if you get them professionally rolled, that's something else. but for those wheels, fender rolling shouldn't be needed at all DEFINITELY go with the omni's. you won't be disappointed AT ALL. i'm actually gonna go lower my car some more right now haha
