    I have to add. I haven't seen it like that on a lancer without a body kit. I also wanted to touch up on the winter performance thing but faceless hit it for me.

    I'd suggest a solid color without the different colored lip. I don't like that look too much. But, I think I like the white ones the most.

    Since I have a CF hood and trunk, im going to ditch the white rims.

    Out of the first 3 i like the 2nd the most. How can find out the offset information and such?

    I like Rota Grids, but anything smaller than 17 looks like shit cuz its doesnt have tht concave shape to the rim. i think.

    Grids are nice. Was looking into getting some gold 16s, but never went through with it.

    On the contrary, the diameter of the wheel has nothing to do with it. Onkar02 has 16x8s on his, and they are just as concave as any. I'm going to get Grids or XXR 522s myself in a 16x7 +25 (I heard +15 fits too) and it's plenty concave. It's all about the offset.

    I deffinetely will put more pics of the rear. I still need to clear the trunk. Then I'll wrap the license plate shroud in 3M DiNoc CF. I love the snow shots. I should get a better camera. These were all taken with my cell phone. I look at some headers Jog. I'm saving all my money until the spring. Lets say installing that SRI in the freezing cold was the worst idea ever. I will never try to install a part in the winter. I live at a apartment so no garage. =/. maybe ill seee you around hammer!
