Will be getting these racing rims within a week and will post pics when they come in. The rims are size 15X7 and only whiegh in at a mere 12.6 lbs which should help shave some time off of my 0 to 60.

Will be riding on Kumho SPT they are size 205/50/15 VR rated since the car can surpass the 130 MPH mark even though the marked top speed is 120(don't believe me check out the 125 MPH video). They are a just a bit bigger in circumfrence so I am gaining at most 2 MPH. My Falken ZIEX tires that I had on my steel rims though are an excellent choice for the cheap price and excellent performance they give and I will still keep them for the occasional drag race or burnout:D.
I got the rims today and I was wrong about the circumference, it is much bigger than I thought so it was a good thing to get the uprated tires should be able to hit 140 MPH (Maybe)

Here they are! Although I will try to get pics of them on my car as soon as it comes back from the shop.

hey nice esteem ive seen your vids on youtube what you said about the speed is true i have a 1.8 wagon version and ive personally taken it to 100 + comfortably and it is an automatic i like your diy stuff too it is very helpful but it is easier and faster to heat up the glue on the headlights and take them apart anyway 5 stars
