well, you will become a better driver then! since you would be more conscious about the road, but thats really a good thing! hehehe...
hmm.. you have a point... hehe! i'll think about it Wink

that's true! you would drive safer and more defensive. Safety is the number one priority  Wink

18's for me too...it makes you more aware of the road and makes you more careful in driving around...the ride for my car is good cause the suspension am using is stock...

im using 17's but might change to 18's  Evil the only problem I have with 18's is that nakakatakot na idrive ng long drive kasi feeling ko mapupodpod yung tires kagad and you cant go fast.... with my 17's I can still go around 120kph  Wink

i decided to go for 15s 'coz i want to keep the stock ride feel and not to compromise the suspension components to make the stock ones last as long as possible.

initially, i wanted to get the track-R model but they didn't have white ones in stock. I asked for the GT-3 since ther look similar, white spoke polished lip and tried it on. Once the wheels where screwed in, i asked for the car to be lowered and bang! i loved the look. i can just imagine the look of the car once it's slammed 1.5 inches nearer  the ground.  Evil

i want to change my oem wheels with a rota destiny 17s.. unfortumnately my dad disagreed with the idea... it sucks! i already saved enough money for it..

and this is the catch (very very upsetting!)... I already had a 50% downpayment!

bnew ROTA Destiny wheels = 15k
bnew westlake 215/45 tires = 9k (4pcs)

Best offer I had!!!!

If ever you're pushing to buy a 17" rims, don't get 215/45, 45 is too thick for a 215. You'll experience possible tire rub with your fender and more rubbing when doing a full-turn. It's either 215/40 or 205/45.. hth.
