$29k. Everyday low price. LOL. ZZP intake and ZZP cat back exhaust. Blowoff or bypass valve. Some sort of tune, don't know brand. Vinyl graphics. Lowered 2". Wheels. That is it. They claim 200HP, but I don't think intake, exhaust, BPV and tune would give that. No intercooler or hose changes, no injectors or E-85, no turbo upgrades, no intake manifold porting, no Anaconda or mid-priced changes. Is 200HP, even engine HP, really possible with this setup?

Just installed my new Drag DR-34 18x8 +40 Offset in Flat Black. Tires are Nankang NS20 215/40R18's.
Yes, it looks like a monster truck right now, but I have CX Racing Coilovers that will be going on in the spring. Live in PA, so winter is right around the corner. These wheels will only be on till Nov. 1st, then my stock 15's go back on, just waiting to mount my new General Altimax Arctics that I purchased as well.
Ordered everything through Discount Tire Direct, and couldn't be happier about the purchase. Once the car is lowered 3-3.5in in the spring she will look really good!

Just got new wheels put on.
Got some pics to compare the old 15" wheels to the new 16" wheels.
These are 16x7 with 40mm offset, V Line Sin V812 wheels from Tire Kingdom. I got them on clearance for no joke 29.99 each.. so I bought 5 just in case I bust one.
They are paired with some 205/55/16 tires. I got some Sumitomo tires that were buy 2 get 2 free on the presidents day sale otherwise I would have got different tires that deal was just too good.
Anways without further delay the pics.

It came out better than I thought it would. I still can't believe I got those wheels so cheap.

Hey Shawn, can you post a direct side view so I can see what kind of "poke" these have, if any? I'm looking at the same offset, same width, same tires for mine, but the wheels I want will require adapters. Just wasn't sure if there's an extra inch there or not without looking stupid. Thanks bro

Yeah...doesn't look like I'll have enough room for what I want to do. Stinks, stupid proprietary bolt patterns...

If I had to get new wheels, I would very strongly consider Fast Rennen wheels in 17" or 18". The Enkei RSF5 wheels look amazing on Sonics and I have no regrets on getting them. I have the machined finish and I don't think they make it anymore (TireRack doesn't have it). I thought the hyper silver finish wouldn't be bright enough for me.

Those are sweet, but way out of my price range.

You can't really beat the RSF5's for the price...
I do like the Vision wheels in your pic above.

I went with the Continental PureContact with EcoPlus Technology in a 205/55R16. The listed treadwidth for that tire is 7.6 inches. They look a little streched but not bad and they keep me at the same weight as the orginal 15".
The next size 215/55r16 has a 8" treadwidth and only slightly larger diameter, but has a XL load rating which I figured would effect the ride adversely.
