New '06 Sc430 - Rim choice
Hi to all the CL Members, just got my new '06 Sc430 in Indigo Ink and I'm dying to make some changes to it. My first mod would've been the grill, but it doesn't seem easy on the '06s so I'll have to hold off on that for now. I'm really lookin into Wheels / Rims next and some of you guys have some really nice ones.
I've narrowed down some choices, hoping you guys could give some input or advice on which looks best and what size / fitment / offsets to go with. (checked the sc430 wheel fitment sticky but the link was invalid).
- Maya DTM - Diamond
- Work Ls105 -
- Lowenhart LD5 - Noir / Chrome
Also trying to figure out what rims these are >> White Sc430
If anyone knows any other brands that have a similar style as the Work Ls105 let me know please. Hope to get some feedback, thanks =)

thanks for the input =) Darn those SSR's look nice, what a shame they're discontinued. Checked out Trafficstar Dts and Dtm which look really good, and also the Zone 5's. Haha just when I thought I had my choices narrowed down you guys are making it even harder =p
@funguy: If you have any suggestions for other rims please let me know. I checked out the wheels thread for SCs and there were a lot that looked good, but I never figured out which brands they were.

you will get 50% of the people telling you to go 19s saying that's enough, and the other 50% will tell you to go 20s coz' that looks better
and i am one of those with 20s
how low you drop your car that's completely your personal taste, you shouldn't have to ask people, and i wouldn't know what to tell you neither. when i drop my car i just dropped it till i like it

In my personal case, I wouldn't drop it more than an inch, because am not willing to live with the drawbacks of lowering more than that. And yes, wouldn't justify the cost of coilovers either.
I think there's enough information in the archives to help you make an informed decision about how much to drop your car. By the way, that decision will be dependent on your wheel offset/tire size of choice as well. And it's safe to assume the lower the car, the more sacrifices you'll have to make (spoiler damage is almost guaranteed at some point when too low).
Good luck man.

Alright, I went to the car shop that I usually go to and they said I need to 'special order' Works rims which will take 6-8 weeks... are those really in such high demand?? Anyhow, i'm still looking for other rims in the meantime during this incredibly long wait. The Black Maya DLS looks pretty nice i think... but only comes in 20's and its pretty pricey. hmm...

Sometimes I look at the side profile of the car especialy the rear and they look a little small. I think I would go with 20" if I could do it again.
