Im in a dillema(?) should I purchase 19" rims or a Pioneer AVIC D1 with options Xm Traffic dealy, Ipod Adapter. Please help, and yes I realize the D1 only does navigation I dont have a need for a dvd player unless someone can get me a really sweet deal on one.

 

Hummmmm,
Awesome question. I was in the position to get my 19's and my Alpine IVA-D900 at the same time.

Think of what would get you more attention?

If I were you and had to pick I would go for the rims. I just finished my stereo and dropped well over 5K but people see me coming from a distance because of the 2" lip on my rimz....>!

Now they can hear me coming from a distance if I so desire.....haha

I'd say rims man! Which ones do you have in mind?
Holla!!!

 

Wow... it's like a what to get stolen first thread.... LOL.... Just kidding...

 

I have a SW tC with kaminari kit.

 

I say rims first. But its really up to you. I said rims first because I am doing the same thing. I'm getting a D1 soon.

 

Do we just follow each other are to different post or what? zi voted

 

i say go with the rims . . .. . .

 

if u got the kam. kit then def. rims

 

definately rims.

 

So what you decide? still saving?

 

OH! hehehe i forgot all about this. well i traded my stock rims with my friend for his 18" MSR 105s with Falken Tires. So im saving for the sound system now.

 

go with rims first.

 

yeah no joke if you have the kaminari kit get rims, the kit looks silly on stocks

 

Rims

 

think about this- is the nav for show, or because you need it? i didn't look at the specs, but if it is a new HU i would say to go for it, because the stock HU sucks. if it's just nav, then get the rims.

 

i say rims but i got a D1 sorry bro good luck....

 

I don't know why people think the stock rims are so bad. They're far better-looking than the stock rims on the other cars. Maybe it's just the fact that they're indeed "stock" and not aftermarket?

 

I'd say rims first but how are the roads where you live? If you drive on crappy roads (like where I live where potholes are often unavoidable in traffic), your new hobby is gonna be replacing tires. I do plan on getting rims myself eventually, but past memories of bubbled sidewalls and bent rims keep holding me back. At least with audio, you pretty much know it'll last, unless it gets stolen of course.

 

Here is what my car looks like! https://www.scionlife.com/forums/vie...526&highlight=
