Before and after pics...ditching the chromes
Ok. I admit it. I really was taken by the wheels when i bought this '06.
Against the black it looked awesome (to me at the time). But after reading this forum and looking at other pics, I soon realized they needed to go. So I decided to ditch them and the Bridgestones and went with Toyo T1-R's.
Now I also agree it needs to be lowered, and probably will go with Tein -S.
Any comments appreciated.....

Huge improvement. Chrome wheels on a sports car always make me laugh.
Nice choice for the upgrades

Nice but most people seem to forget the all important front/side angle. You got it but it's kinda messed up by turning the wheels toward the camera.
