Not sure why there's so much hate on the rims. I think they look really sick. They match the titanium really nicely (which may be my favorite color on this car) and I like the look of the 5 spoke. They also extend all the way to the lip, so the wheels look bigger than they are. Really nice look! I know it may not be for everyone, but they are really tight.
Where did you get them from?

^haha. It's not that old. I've seen resurrected threads from years back on the other forums I'm on. Oh well, guilty of the nOOb thing here. 
Thanks for the link to tirerack. I was looking at those yesterday. Like I said, it's not for everyone, but I really like the way they look on the graphite. I'm having a hard time figuring out what will look good on Nordic Green. Really nice looking 8, though.

Thanks for the offer and the updated pic! Your car looks sick. I decided to go a different direction with wheels, but love the MS bumper. I do love the way those wheels look on your ride. I'll be putting on my MS kit in the spring. My 8's an all-year-round car. Should be interesting in the snow. Seriously sick ride. Really clean.

^ thanks man. I decided to stop the rest of the MS kit until after winter because im not 100% sure if I will have my sister's car to much longer. But if you are driving your 8 in the winter. look into getting winter tires, I have used the Blizzaks last winter and wow it is amazing

Nice updated pic... I would say if your looking for some springs that wont put you too low... to go with racing beat or eibach... I have eibach on my car now, I bottom out sometimes now with my kit but otherwise its ok

Haha, no one has ever commented on that. I picked up a set of mix matched strakes for close to nothing and i thought it would look cool/different if i only put one on each side so i did for a while. But now I have color matched strakes. (need a chrome strake let me know)

I have the same concerns about slamming the car after putting on the kit. I had an Evo VIII with a body kit, then I dropped it 2". There weren't too many driveways I was bold enough to try. Eibach should be a good lowering option. I think it's only about an inch drop. TIGHT!
