You should put some pics of the car in the YOUR RIDE section

and look like every other EG ricer out there.

The timing is an easy issue to fix, and an awesome opportunity to get to learn more about your car in the mechanical how-to sense. I agree with no rim larger than a 16" looking good on our cars. It takes some people longer than other to find that one wheel that they really like.

CF on white would look really good also
