New wheels
Got a set of 5 spokers on my car to replace the snowflakes. I put some 255/50*/16 M/T ET streets in the rear too. Tell me what you think.

New struts and shocks all around actually.
Im certain the springs were replaced with lift springs by the last owner.
Im broke anyone wanna donate a set of stock fornt springs for a thirdgen?
On another note what do you guys think they would look like flat black? Anyone wanna photochop it for me?

I attempted to highlight the raised parts of the rim that would look lighter...just didn't look right and i dont have the time to give it more detail so i got rid of the highlights, but u get the idea

looks good...better than the snowflakes. i think if u paint them flat black it would give them a weird look. i can see them colored orange or red though. but that would severly hurt the resell value

maybe do a dark gun metal gray? i bet the front all jacked up helps transfer the weight harder for dragging.
