thanks for the replys so far...the rims are 17's as nothing more would fit without mods... the rear is a little higher than the front stock...and I thought lowering was after the body kit........I don't have one in mind yet......anyway thanks so far.......it looks a ton better than it used too...on the donut n all

Every Neon body kit has been a disaster..

[iamamp3pimp 5,000+ posts]

why a bigger tire?

 

[pimpedout97x]

i like the low profile tires.........

granted it gets lowered.

Lower your car, get it even (back not so high) and leave it. It actually looks REALLY good without a body kit. Saying that, there is probably nice body kits out there, but why change something that looks really good already. Let me tell you, Dodge cars (newer 00'+) have some NICE lines.

Spend that body kit money for a TL or something. IDK lol.

1" Would make it look good but 2-4 would be awesome. I'm not a fan of the slammed looked so I wouldn't go any more than that.

No they aren't...it just looks goofy because it needs to be lowered. I wonder if all 7000 of your posts are as dumb as the last 4-5 I've noticed

STFU.

kthxbye.

It's probably not going to ride too nicely.

if you get any body kit, id get one like on the srt 4's (i think theyre different a bit) like the yellow one at work....i love that neon. dont get one of those ricey big ass bumper and side skirts that make it look lowered when in fact it isnt. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

That neon was done with bits and pieces from lots of different neons (sxts, SRT-4s, and Kaminari) and it's REALLY clean, and doesn't have any nasty intakes or vents. I love how it flows.

It's possible to get up to a 20x7.5" wheel on a 225/35/20 tire on a Neon with no modification with an offset of +38 or higher. HOwever, the offset must be higher than +38 to avoid having to roll the inner fender.

drop before wheels. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
but get soem coilovers so you can adjust it.

i thought that was the rule of thumb. drop, then wheels. oh well.
