Haha, I've tried that before. The problem is money. I have to get tires too, but I want rims at the same time, so I'm looking for used tires/rims on craigslist.com

Default can i make a slight suggestion? <All N00BS SHOULD CLICK> I EVEN DID

unless you are buying 17 inch rims (stock size) you're car will look fvcking stupid without suspension.

Then from there look at it this way... if I ever pulled up beside you on the street (and lets say im not pushing my car... literally pushing it .. that will make sense later)... i would be able to blow your car out of the water. I.E. you might want to
look at doing a bit of performance mods before you start going for the visual.

My suggestion would be to do this (i really can't believe im taking the time to type this)

my car day one... probably looks similar to yours minus the bumper

boost guage + short shifter mod

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0053.jpg">
turbo timer to ensure i don't blow my motor (cause that never happens)

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0087.jpg">
installed s4 sideskirts

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0099.jpg">
with the help of two forum members (twentyvalve + quinn) i put a front mount intercooler on

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0112.jpg">
had to install a new power steering cooler cause of the intercooler

<Img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0125.jpg">
new brakes + phatnoise + car is now chipped + n75f + turbo inlet pipe (ala samco)+ exhaust + baileys DV

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0399.jpg">
amassed tools along the way

time for suspension =)

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0454.jpg">
new control arms

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0471.jpg">
need some ecodes... everyone needs ecodes

<Img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0464.jpg">
this is a k04.. this is the beginning of the end

yes... she's evil

<img src="http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f230/imawesomea4/IMG_0989.jpg">

she waits for the new awesomeness

i just typed that to let you know

I have a passion for these cars, most guys on here do. If you're looking to chrome your rims, add spinners or insane sub systems without looking at other aspects of the car... we don't like you.

It's the honest to gods truth! Our drive is towards beating M3's on on ramps, blowing the doors off porches, and making biches wet

if you don't share that dream, that goal, that desire; this may not be the forum for you

Wow, thanks for doing all that. The reason I wanted new rims is because I need new tires anyways, so I decided that i wanted to get used tires/rims. I'm looking to tune my car up too, so don't worry about that. Oh, and I'm not going for chrome, I'm going for black.

I'm looking for a job right now, so I can mod my performance.

In all honesty, I want my car to look nice, but I DO want to be able to burn the "bigger" cars. =D
