I am intrigued as to how you associate these particular rims with going 4x4, but to answer your question, no. I am looking to get some better springs and suspension to support the 275 rear tire I now have. The power the G does pull I would like to ensure gets to the ground as efficiently as possible.
Thanks for the feedback.

rule of thumb you put bigger rims on a car you should lower it at the same time. if not it looks like you want to go 4x4ing because u just lifted your car higher off the floor.

Got it, these are 19'' and my stock rims are also 19'', I thought about going 20'' but after reviewing some posts on this forum, I decided to go 19'' with lowering and body kit to follow. I think that will clean up the look a bit and hopefully get rid of that 4x4 look. Thanks for the feedback.

Everyone is entitled to like and hate what they want. I don't take it personally, just try to make things better because of it.

Thought about 20" but was worried about my drive. I do about 120 miles per day in my ride as a commute. I am going to do a drop and suspension next. I am reading now on this forum whether to go supercharged or turbo.

I like them, I think some will like them a bit more once I get the car dropped and a nice clean kit put on. I will give it try and see what everyone thinks.

I can see that. I can get the inserts in black or remove them all together. I may give that a try and post some additional pics with the difference.
