Unless you're ok spending 2-2.5G's for wheels.

I agree, but Irish is so picky with his wheel choices....

The real question is when are you going to paint those tail lights?
If you are asking me, I am not totally sold on painting the tail lights yet. i want to but havent figured out a grat way yet.

going white in the back i dont think is gonna look as good.

i am still debating

anyone know a good website that has comptetive deals on wheels.

i know the XT7's are gonna be $$ no matter what but every dollar counts. it is suppose to be a present from the parents, but if i tell them 1600 for a set they will probably just put some cash toward a set. i think they are thinking like $1000. so the cheaper i can get them the better. plus imma still have to buy tires so i gotta keep that in mind.

also does anyone know what the biggest wheel i can go without moding anything.

its not dropped or anything yet either. i have been waiting to get the rims so i can see how low i can go.

I may not be of any help in answering those questions, but I'd at least want to go with an 18x8 wheel if you're going with some nice wheels like those XT7's. 18x8 you can fit a 235 or 245 on, but you'd prob want to stick to a 225 or 235 to avoid rubbing issues maybe? (I'd also prob stick with a 225/35/18 or 235/35/18, rather than a 40 as it'd help with clearance). All up to you though. It's your ride, and you have to drive it and live with it. I have a high tolerance for rough rides/noisy cars.
