Nothing worse than nice rims, which is a window to the breaks and you see rusty stock rotors, and calipers.. Doesnt matter if the car is brand spankin new.. They will look like shit... Have to get a break kit.
Its like a hot woman in a skirt and high heels. It just looks like shit if she doesnt shave her legs.
Also, make sure you get it done by a place that knows what they are doing and knows about rim offsets.
Nothing looks worse than a set of rims and tires that the offset just doesnt match the car, and the profiles of the tires just way off.
Go to a pro, someone who knows and does a lot of oversized rims sales and installs.

Thanks for the great info. I am going for the 20s and will look into upgraded brakes and rotors. I love the car already and have only had it a couple of hours. I do miss my M3 and it has been gone for less than 2 hours. What a great car that is but just a little small and stiff for my needs these days.
