Hey, we all had a "First car" and we ALL did stupid stuff to it that, looking back, we thought "what was I thinking?".

Let's get this guy off to a good start with sensible mods that will keep him from looking like some of the cars in the "Post pics of your local Ricers" thread.

Sorry for all the harsh comments, most of us can't remember what it was like to be 17 years old! I bought my first car when I was 151/2 and only had my learners permit and only made a few mistakes thanks to my Dads guidance.
Go with the 19" rims only because the look way better than 18"! Here's a possibility, check our Marketplace under Private Classified for '06 19" coupe rims. Often they come with tires and you could always paint them black for the "Look" you want+they're cool rims.

Yes it's true. Already answered why.


Ditching OEM 19's for black wheels? That's a downgrade IMHO. The black wheel phase really needs to end.

Nothing says "deminished resale" than taking a perfectly good set of wheels and painting them black.
