personally i like darker better but you cant really go wrong with either color on a NG, not too bad price for those rims, 184 a rim.. i need to sell two sets first though i may look into buying those they look sick

What is the offset on those?

The whole setup cost me a little more than $600. If you're interested I have a set of rear black leather seats, used. I'm having trouble finding the inner door handle piece, since i broke mine i kinda want to replace them with something other than stock but no luck there

Sweet setup; I have same exact exterior but the w the factory 16's that come with the AT. Found a nice set of 18 x 9 rims & I'm putting new tires on them. I'll post the new setup when its finished. I still need to repaint the whole car, paints all faded. Yours looks great

Thats a pretty good price compared to what Ive seen around! Thanks for the offer, but just don't have the funds right now haha.

Correct, and I highly recommend both the wheels and tires I currently have. The Kumho XS's have huge amounts of grip....as long as it is warmer than 40 F outside.

I had the whole car high speed buffed a couple months ago paint looks pretty sharp even though it is an '04.. if you look closely you can see where some idiot shot my car with a pelet gun maybe even .22 just after i got it done.. dumb *** kids. Looking forward to your pics though!

I just bought my new wheels and tires not too long ago, but I am going to the track next month... so I may look into those tires thanks.
