...without lowering springs, how was the gap? I heard that the gap gets bigger (or at least looks bigger) when you put bigger rims on without springs. I'm saving up for rims, and won't be able to get lowering springs until about 2 months after that. I just don't want to be riding around a ridiculous 4X4 on 18's...

it looks kinda funny...but i mean, if my springs wouldn't have been here when my rims were, it wouldn't of bugged me that much...i seen the car withouth springs and on 18's, wasn't bad...but yeh, nothin beats a lowered car...

it depends on your taste and since youre getting springs soon it wont matter just put the rims on, trust me 90% of the ppl out there wont even know the difference, unless theyre ricers in which case you probably dont care what they think anyways.

I don't think it looks good at all but I rode like that all last summer cause I didn't have money for springs, now I have springs and no wheels, lol.
