Lowered W/ Rims

What do guys think, its my first time doing this(not 1st time with photoshop, I use it for school and work)? I'm just thinking about lowering my car, the rims I just found online, but I do like em.

I like those rims too! lowered vibes make happy vibes I have the hotchkis and they are slightly lower in the front (after settling) than I thought but it looks real good. Nice clean uniform clearance around the tires front and back

Yeah, next spring for sure it will be lowered and it will get some new rims too. The back rim looks a little funky though, i'll fix it later.

Yes they are the Sport Cds, although they do look slightly different.

Mine are 18" rims, looks like you have the 17" rims...what springs did you lower your Vibe with or is it lowered? what is wrong with the rear rims?

lol, this is all photoshop. I didn't physically lower my car( I wish), its all done with me cutting a picture of the body of the car and lowering it. Same with the rims, cut and paste, then manipulate until the angle looks right. I guess i did a convincing job with the photoshoping??

Damn, you had me fooled...r u really going to get those rims? good choice, but the powder coated coloring is a bit weak so be careful when installing or removing. I got mine at tirerack.com.

The rims were about $132 ea and the tires were about $85 ea...When I bought my car three months ago, the tires were shot, so I had the dealer knock off $600 from the price.the total cost for 4 - 18" rims and the ASX series tires was just over $900 ... also got locking lug nuts just in case...i believe that included shipping and I actually put them on myself in less than 1 hour.
