I really would like to get an idea of what rims and what set up looks best on the 202's. I have an idea of what I want, I just want to see more rims and some details of what type of suspension set ups they have. If you could post pics for me to see and some info that would be great.

this is what my C280 had when I sold it:

the rims were pretty good for price, 150/pc and H&R 5mm spacers in the front and 20mm in the rear. the suspension was lowered with H&R first stage sport springs and original spring pads. I have also done some camber/caster modifications to both front and rear subframes so it can be properly adjusted. you can read from my signature the rest of the mods I had.

I like the lowenhart and the movens. Both cars look excellent and really low. It kind worries me that it might rub and I never got rub with my 202 being so high. I was really looking into the movens and heard something about the monet's. I really like that style. I like the lowenharts, but I think they are really out of my price range.

You over paid. I could have got you a much better deal on the same wheels and tires.

I could have saved him at least a couple of hundred dollars on the S5R's and NT555 tire package. I have to find out the exact prices, I'll let you know and I'll PM you later.

I loooove the way 19's look on the 202 but I don't want to make my car a turtle. I hear they slow you down A LOT. :(
