Also i dont understand when people say " you'll have to roll the fender " please forgive my noobieness!

 

The first thing you should do is spend some time browsing through the wheel section and the "SHOW ME YOUR WHEELS" thread. There are endless possibilities of set ups for our cars.

This is what I always tell my friends when purchasing a new set of wheels:

1) establish a budget. If money is not a problem you can have a custom made set of wheels.
2) determine style and look you want. If you don't like to spend hours cleaning wheels, then stick to a simple spoke design.
3) look at the lines of the wheels vs. the car and the color contrast. Some wheels will look great on Coupes but not so hot on the Sedans.
4) road conditions around the area where you live to help you decide the size
5) is this your daily driver or just your leisure car?
6) do you care about performance? Different wheels have different weights.

BTW, when people talk about rolling fenders, we are referring to the inside lip of your wheel well. When you roll it (or push it up), it will yield more clearance for more agressive wheels and tires.

 

DPE's are sick. Can't go wrong with Volk either.

 

Thanks

 

If you just want to lower it a little go with 350Z springs and a good set of 19's or 20's. Search around and you will find lots of info on wheels for sedans.
