    clean your engine bay! like the injen cai though, not really digging the rims, not a chrome fan or type of rim, reminds me of rims that on trucks

    But its your car do whatever suits you =]

    and for tire size

    you need more info like is it 5x114 or 5x100 or whatever
    and what offset

    Re: Blue ES Progress Report

    225/40s will look good but 45s will protect the rims better if any pot holes...i know i would use 45s with those...they tend to bend very easily, at least here in PR :D

    btw i really suggest you get Injens hydro shield, it will protect your filter even more and it repels water drops so they wont be sucked in!!

    Dang bro, I have chrome on my car, I get plenty of compliments, (even had people asking me how much I wanted for them), but I think I should have gone with black rims/chrome lip. I got mine chrome becuase my GF wanted me to get them chrome and she practically paid for them.

    Now turn around sell them and tell her you got an offer that's too good to refuse, and go and buy the rims you really want! :twisted:

    Re: Blue ES Progress Report

    Lol, I dont think I would get what I wanted, plus they are my first pair of rims Ive ever owned so I think I might hold on to them. Might get them custom powdercoated later to my liking. For now I rather spend the money I would have to pay (for the difference) on mods and such.
