Thanks guys ! I'm itching for some rims but the only problem is I wasn't planning to drop the car much if at all since I like how smooth the car is right now. Think it would look bad if i put 19" - 20" with no drop?

at first i wanted to get the lexus spiders but i'm really liking HRE's.

First off, congrats on picking up your AWD. Nice color combo. Now onto the drop. You'll find out soon enough that nobody(as far as I know) makes either a coilover set up or springs for our AWD's. It's been a slightly sore subject. I think Tanabe has hit the ball back to us, looking for a AWD for R&D. So far, no takers(you have to live in Cali...were Tanabe is located)

So to stay on point, I'm thinking of rolling 20's stock, until the springs or coilovers come out. There are some CL members that are rolling 19's on stock suspension.

20s all the way, it makes a big difference and you need the drop to complete the overall look its a must........
