So I just had my graduation party tonight and got some money... What do you guys think I should buy? Here are my options...

-KYB GR2's and Eibachs (400-500ish)

or

-Enkei Evo5 rims with rubber(750ish)

I really need new tires BADLY, and I imagine my shocks are shot because I don't even know if they have been replaced before... What do you think?

I voted for new blades. I assume that's the rims and tires??? If you know that you really need them now then why even consider dropping your car right now?

i went with rims/tires as well. old shocks probobly wont kill you but bad tires might....

Another option, would be to just stick a new set of tires on the rims you got, and go ahead with the drop also. It would still look good and be safe laugh.gif

I would vote drop and tires on the wheels you currently have, which would be around 750ish.

So I bought a set of Enkei Evo-6 Rims instead. I bought 17"x7" 4x114.3. They weigh 18.5lbs a piece which is kind of heavy, but not bad. They come in anthracite or hyper black, I don't know which one I want so I said anthracite, but even if they send hyper black I will be happy. They both look great! smile.gif
