Ok first, my new wheels should be here wednesday, once they come i will be putting my springs on!

what tire do you guys recommend? (size as well)
i want as wide as possible with out rub.
new rims= rota gt3 16x7
drop= eibach sportline springs

2nd question is where can i get purple lugs that are not gonna run me 200 bucks lol

final question has anyone used G2 brake paint? i want purple brake calipers too and they seem to be the only one who has the metallic purple color i want

What is the offset? I'm guessing +40 or around there. I would run a 50 series tire. 205-50-16 or 215-50-16 will work.
Blox and muteki have purple lugs that are around the $50-$60 range.

My friend used the G2 paint with good results, but please don't paint the brake calipers purple...

They only lower 1.5 inches, 225/50/16 should be fine. I'm on crappy skunk2 springs lowered 2.25 and 2 inches w/225/50/16 +40, I had to do a mild roll in the rear. but otherwise i'm fine.
