plasti dip or powder coat your stocks...put on some spacers for flush fitment and pop some teins on to lower you just a tad and away you go.

Honestly, its comes down to your own preference, decide which rims you want, we can give you our opinion and input, but in the end it's what rims you want on your own car

I say get your factory rims powdercoated rather than plastidipped, just make sure you do it through a reputable company that's familiar with powdercoating forged products (if they heat the wheel up too high and/or too long, the material will lose the advantageous properties of the forging).

That said, I've never been a fan of 20's on a G. 19's or 18's, depending on the style of wheel, look best (in my opinion).

i really like the white on bronze cobination which is why im leaning towards modifying my stocks...the reason plasti dip intrigues me is because if i ever choose to upgrade my rims i will be able to remove the plasti dip where as powder coating is a permanent deal

Looks like i might end up trading my forged rims for some m45 Sport rims which i dont mind being that it still stays somewhat stock without much modification needed
