I say DROP IT LIKE IT'S HOTT! 
Once you lower it you will have to get used to scraping the front end. I'm only on s-techs and as careful as I try to be I will still occasionally scrape going up and down driveways. The lip may end up taking a beating. That was why I bought mine used, so I wouldn't feel bad everytime it happened. My suggestion is that you lower your car first then wait to find a nice used one for $125-$200 on the forums.

Calm down ballers... Im so broke I still cant afford new tires since way before Phoenix. I think Im gonna stand on the corner like a bum and get some spare change then maybe I can afford those tire flys I want, lol. Hopefully I can get some killer tips this summer and make some good change.

Kaehr coating paint shop on Candelaria (http://www.kaehr.com/). You have to do nothing but give them your wheels without the tires. They will sandblast the original finish for you prior to powdercoating to ensure there is a clean, smooth surface for the powder to adhere to.Oh Eric, I finally got my HT!

what color do you guys think i should get my wheels done? they have a massive lip so im gonna keep that brushed or polished but im not sure on what color to do. black is on its own level of being played out and i dont want to get accused of trying to style bite silentdancers white on red. any ideas?
