    Default Style 5s or Mpars?

    i got these 18" style 5s not to long ago, alot of work went into them, taking them apart, stripping them, cleaning off rash, polishing, etc. i love these wheels to death, but i want to run much bigger rubber in the rear. i found some one to trade for some mpars, 9.5 rears.8 front. but i dont know if i want to do it!! i love my style 5s way to much esp. cuz i refinished them myselfway to much but theres just not enough meat in the back!

    Just a note... the fatter the tire the shitty your handling will b e...5's look way better than M Pars IMHO

    I'd love the 18" style 5's if you're getting rid of them - I'd totally fix them up

    I absolutely love your car btw, regardless of wheels - honestly I think the mpars are more fitting to the sportier look of the car that you've got going here

    I agree with the others, the 18" style 5s need to stay. However, having 10" rear wheels I can vouch for their amazing looks.

    Tough decision there. I voted.
