The rims alone will cost you about $1500. The nitto 555s will run you around $700.

gawwwwwd daaaaamn.

looks like that'll be a mod WAY in the future after all my performence mods.

hey but quick question, i've heard that 18's can effect launch negatively?

would that necessarily be true even if i got aftermarket upper and lower control arms and drag springs?

yes 18's pose a problem because the is less sidewall..17's would be the large rim id go with and then I would go with the largest tire I could be under the car

I heard the Nitto drag radials wear out pretty quickly? When I get new wheels i'm just giong to get an extra set of wheels with D/Rs mounted on the back.
