Well, for one, more people are going to notice the wheels and I think they'll look better anyway. Plus, I'm not quite sure our doors are long enough to make lambo doors look right.

Just noticed you're in Orlando, what color?

Wheels!! The lambo doors are cool. However, it is an extreme mod and this could effect the resale value of your car. Wheels will potentially increase the value of the car.

My .02$ cents...

well I will say wheels...but lambodoor kits are not that great...good luck getting IN to the car with them.

The only way you will fit in is if you get a high end lambo kit...on that goes to 90 degrees or more...that is the only way you will get in and the kit look good

but really it is kind of lame to get lambo doors without remote activate compressor opening

that costs more than any rim kit you would get...unless it is carbon fiber rims

Rims because the lambo doors will make your car look weird if you havn't highly modify the rest of the car.So 19's.......

rims

lambo doors belong on a LAMBORGHINI. putting them on any other can is both ghettotastic and impractical. that is, unless you're going for a 10 star rating in NFSU2.

Sorry guyz i know there is like a million people on here that said to get the rims before lambo doors but i have decided to do the lambo doors this month because im goin to wait till i need new tires to buy some 19" wheel and tire package. I will post pics as soon as i get it on. i ordered some that are 90 degree so it should be pretty cool.

Well, I guess I'm a bit late but I was going to also suggest the wheels... after all, you're making a purely cosmetic mod, so why not go for the one that people will always see? Your doors will get no exposure when you're on the road...
