I have not decided which wheels/tires will go with this car, I am thinking of leaving the current wheels as pictured on it which are 18" Drift Z Jade R's with newer tires that have less than 12k miles on them.
I have also installed a new trans mount and a stg2 BFI dogbone mount, helps cut down on wheelhop alot! Have a rear wiper assembly as well incase someone wants to DD this and be able to see out of the back widow.
Car is Located in Des Moines, IA

MIGHT be interested in partial trade (bmw/audi...maybe something rwd must be manual trans) + cash on your end
