Ah ok, not quite as dramatic a difference, but I personally love the cornering.

no matter if you keep them or not, you definitely need 19's, it just fills in the car so much better. 19's look perfect with the drop you have.

They look like steel wheels, but they are almost half the weight of them... Those wheels are disgustingly light and strong.

Silver with the all black wheels tell me you mean business. The cherry on top is that you have the performance to back it up too!

Your killing me MJ, those wheels are so sick and nice and light baby! I was wondering who was gonna be the lucky one to get those, your ride looks uniqiue now and the spilt spokes are played out. Put some damn pants on as far as the wifey is concerned And yes, I am married.

If none of my business please tell me, but women in our lives girlfriend/wife have their own hobbies/passions I don't dictate how they pursue these avenues & expect the same courtesy while I pursue mine. You seem noticeably bummed @ her NON-approval yet you bought it/pay for it

If I'm outt've line I apologize, just trying to help Let your buddy's tell you if it's a cool mod or not
