When you change your rims, do you change out the TPS too? Do they fit in all valve stems?

Not my cup of tea. Not really into the bling-bling chrome.

^no. The OEM tpms is not compatible with all wheels. There's a sticky in the wheels/tires subforum on the subject.

What do you mean by bling bling? Do you mean because of the chrome?

Cheers.

they are too busy. IMO, the simplest rims look the best.

the OPTION to change the rims? its not an option, its a requirement. if i ever saw u on the road next to me id crash into your 8 with my 8 just so the rotary community would be spared of seeing that thing run around the streets.

Can someone photochop the rims to gun metal? I'm thinking they may not look bad a different color...

Your rims are fine, you have 2 options to perfect your car.

1. Lower like 2"inches with no body kit but with a lip spolier.

2. Full body kit with a 1" drop.

Your call!

Cheers.
