Silver would be a good color on the car. I like the way the color blends on my car, even though folks thin k my rims are to big they're just fine for me. 17's are nice though.

Not saying you have to go as big as I did, but check my page at cardomain. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2677940 I have 20's but that's just me cause that's what I want. I've gotten a lot of grief here because I did it but hey, my car;my mods. I think the silver rims give it a nice look. I tried the chrome 18's I had on my honda and it didn't look right to me. But when I put the 20's on, even though it's a tight fit, it looked way better.

It would be a group buy....Meaning I'd have to get at least 50% down from you before hand, and at least one other person. Shouldn't be too hard really. If I get insanly good pricing I can buy three sets without and have you put down 100% for your set. Wouldn't take long to get them to you either, 3 weeks tops I'd imagine.

I probably would try to match that. I think the red paint would set it off. I like the black inner rim on mine because there are subtle accents on the car that are black and the tint will be black as well. when I get it done I send some pics.

im really thinking about doing it...im just not 100% sure if the dark red tail and signal lights are enough to have the rims blend in with the car if i do try to paint those chrome parts a dark a red color...

Not saying it's huge, but I think it'll make a big difference. I mean it should make people notice the dark red color on your car because they'll associate it with your rim inserts and buttons.

i work as a service advisor at a suzuki dealer and just last week i put 19" chrome spinouts from PERFECTLYROUND.COM on an '07 forenza, tire rub when doina u-turn was minimal but expected with that size tire and that small of a wheel well. i've seen 20"s on a forenza i wouldnt suggest it. When putting rims on veh's that are larger then what comes stock on it technically you void the manufacturer power-train warranty, if u like the look of 15-16 inch rims then i would go with that, otherwise keep your stock wheels and tires in case you have and powertrain related problems. Just a friendly hint from someone that knows
