Wheels
I know I said suspension up next, but I'm so glad I got wheels. Looks like a brand new car and drives like one too, turns out my 65mph steering wheel shake was from the stock wheels not being balanced. They're 18x9.5s and the ride isn't harsh at all, actually feels a lot smoother. Offset is 22, tires are 235 40s all the way around. Fitment is amazing. Here's some pics, tell me what you guys think

Yep, ESR SR08s. I like them so far and yes I plan to get some Tein Basis Z's because of the price point on them.

Thanks bro they're still settling but they ride very good, spring rates are 10k front and 8k rear so it's a little stiff compared to stock but it's like driving a completely different car. Nowhere near as much body roll and no rubbing even at a decent height, I recommend them.

Change of Plans
So I've had the car for a year now and I have changed my mind about what I want to do with it about a thousand times but I think with this car I'm going to go with the ultimate daily driver. Gonna start focusing on some serious maintenence to make this thing run like new. As for the looks, I want it clean and slammed but very functional. What are some things I should look at and/or replace if I want this car to be bulletproof?

Will do, I actually ended up not replacing the ball joints because nothing seemed wrong but learned real quick that my outer tie rods are shot. Next up is some control arm and sway bar bushings
