Rims or M-tech?

jj970 · 09-09-2010, 06:16 PM

What makes a more drastic change visually?

Getting the M-sport or v710 rims?

I'm all stock now, but want to do some cosmetic mods. What do you guys think I should get first?

I have a JB+, 35% tint so far...

If you are getting new wheels .... i'm interested with your stock wheels with tires straight off $800 cash pm me later when you have decided.....

c_jeong89 · 09-09-2010, 06:21 PM

what wheels do u have on right now? I would usually go for wheels first unless they are the 189s(i like 189s

)

Get new wheels. M-sport package (bumpers + sideskirts) doesn't make the car look "better", just "different". Some people even prefer the stock look over the m-sport look. V710 wheels, on the other hand, are definitely hot.

NJ330i · 09-09-2010, 06:40 PM

+1 on the rims

kushtrim · 09-09-2010, 07:50 PM

+1 Rims

I got my v710s first and now am going after the m-tech kit.

Rims and aerolip bumper. A lot of change for the money

hipnotic · 09-09-2010, 11:28 PM

yeah rims makes the biggest difference on any car

jj970 · 09-10-2010, 12:26 AM

Cool, looks like the rims have it...

I have 189s...but I don't like them...

Thanks for all the input fellas.

gizmo335i · 09-10-2010, 05:37 AM

Are you dropped yet? If not, I say do that first....then rims....

I think the aero lip looks better than Msport, cheaper too. Good value as the aero lip shouldn't be more than $500 (painted and shipped to the door). The VMR's shouldn't run you much over $1200 so you'll actually save money going this way.

M-Tech

E92-Lighting · 09-10-2010, 01:40 PM

Wheels

Craig@SupremePower · 09-10-2010, 01:42 PM

rims no doubt but you'll need a drop as well...

spdy330 · 09-10-2010, 01:57 PM

You mean mine does not look better?

Depending on the wheels you currently have I vote mtech.

JSCO · 09-10-2010, 01:59 PM

I'm doing both as well and I'm going after the kit first...

valdivita · 09-10-2010, 02:03 PM

Wheels for sure!!!!

jj970 · 09-11-2010, 12:52 AM

Hmm...not dropped at all...totally stock suspension.

I haven't even looked into suspension mods. I am still in warranty so I didn't want to mess with that.

But...now that I'm going wheels...

18's or 19's?

crzylildude · 09-11-2010, 12:56 AM

19" or 20s if you can drop it a little... it will look awsome...

dragazn · 09-11-2010, 09:11 AM

depend, if your tire is wearing out, do rims. If its not do mtech kit
