Welcome to the forum. You're lucky to get a car this great at such a young age.

As goes for rims, look in the sticky's for pics with rims on people's cars. And for tint, get 35 percent or lower, depending where you live and how strict the police is. Anything above 35 percent is just a waste of money in my opinion (too light).

You're 16?!?!

Damn, I wish I could have had a car that nice at that age. You're going to get so much tail with the G!

Anyhoo...check your laws about tint for your state (to either stay in compliance or at least know how much of the law you're breaking ). But I've got 20 percent Onyx all around my G and it looks sweet. I've seen some with 5 percent tint...but IMO its a little too dark.

I've got no suggestions on rim choice other than size. I've read in previous posts (Tech Area - Wheels & Tires would be a good place to look) that anything past 18" or 19" could possibly result in a harder ride.
More rim=less rubber, therefore less cushioning and also potentially risk factors such as higher propensity for flat tires, broken rims, and a stiffer ride. However, if you live in paved Shangri-La...I guess this wouldn't really be an issue.

I live in SoCal, and unfortunately, not all the freeways and roads are in the best conditions...especially in pot-hole friendly LA.

Anyhoo...good luck and Welcome!

What color is your interior? If it's black, 30-35%. If it's willow, 20%.

Sevas are pretty popular among this forum. I didn't know about this brand before i join this forum.
