I would vote for the TOYO ones. My car has installed the Proxes 4...excellent performance in wet/dry, good handling on curves or cornerings. Smooth and quiet.

what kind of trunk spoiler is that can you post more pics of it?

also you should put the window trim back to black to go with the wheels

Isn't that tire size is going to cause your speedo to read too fast? I run 235/50/17 and it's same diameter as stock.

You're right...225/50/17 = means when your speedo shows 60mph...you're at 61 mph 1.7% faster..no big deal but when the odometer shows 10000, you've traveled 10175 miles.

I chose the 235/50/17 too....60mph = 60 mph..almost the same circumferences

Yeah they give the car an overall exotic look and give it more flare. I really like them so far. I wired them into the dome light circuit via BT's foot well kit. BT helped me out and integrated extra hookups into his kit. Which has the lights turn on and fade off with the dome light. I have meant to make a video of the results but of course in has rained ALL day the last two days, so I will post one tonight, after the super bowl of course =)

Hey bro, I got them off eBay (kinda skeptical at first lol) but they were 50 bucks but I found a website that had them cheaper the other day for 40 bucks. Here is the link below!! Hopefully I will find time between school and work to make a write up so everyone can have some classy puddle lights lol!!

I saw this video PlastiDip on Window Trim - Black Out Chrome Window Trim on Your Car - Dipyourcar.com - YouTube and it looks sort of easy... The one thing I'm debating is I should do the front and rear emblem
