I have cheaper wheels which some call them sub par (xxr) I love them and they are aggressive and can care less if someone hates them because I don't.. I've had a few sets of xxr on a few different cars and never an issue..

Looks alot better and with the proper drop it will look better than alot of new Zs here. Please keep up your new found method of researching when you go for suspension. There's so much wrong you can do by trying to go cheap, but at the same time you can still do it right without breaking the bank.

I'm not putting anything cheap suspension wise thats forsure! I'm saving up, once I do then I will do a good amount of research before buying anything!
