Well they are the gravana/monarch wheels. 19" staggered, The look good differant then i expected after all the pick I saw, now I need to figure out lowering it, I am thinking some adjustable coil-overs, as i do drive this car all year round and we do see a bounch of snow up here
The pics were taken right when it was taken off the stands, so it has settled a little with driving but it sits way to high,, i have not noticed it handeling differant yet but have only driven it home after putting the wheels on and to work, i will know after tonight if the weather stays good
very nice, i just got an 18" set of those and am already wishing I had gone for the 19s. looks great and will look even better when you get those coil-overs on it.
I recently heard that HKS has announced there coilovers, I have not heard a price or when, but RMR will be selling them. They are a bit busy this month with racing, so maybe more info in August. I would expect around $1500 for all 4

I would have to say more of the 2K range. HKS doesnt make cheap products.

Compression Performance
HIPERMAX III
Series Concept: Designed and tuned for street application / daily driving.
With the Hipermax III suspension series, the driver gains increased wheel control with improved performance of all vehicle dynamics and increased driver command in all conditions. Hipermax III combines track-quality control with excellent ride and handling characteristics at real-world street speeds. HKS' all-new Hiper Linear Piston Fluid Channel System damping system creates a positive relationship between piston speed and damping force, making it possible to produce a suspension that provides track-level control and feedback with exceptional ride quality at the same time.
In addition, the Hipermax III is shock-body adjustable (most applications) to allow vehicle height adjustment without affecting spring rate and piston stroke. With the Hipermax III’s range of adjustability, precise corner balancing can be achieved. Chrome-plated cylinder shafts provide excellent durability and newly-design rubber upper mounts reduce harshness. (For most applications, optional spherical bearing mounts are also available for enhanced steering feedback.)
Key Features:
• Hiper Linear Piston – Linear progression piston adjusts oil passages for precise stroke management resulting in smoother valve movements. As piston speed increases, dampening rate linearly increases.
• Strengthened rubber upper mounts – enhanced durability
• Monotube design
• Shock-body length adjustable (most applications)
• 65mm diameter springs – Cold wound and manufactured in-house at HKS to ensure quality and consistency
• Stainless lock nut & ride height adjuster – feature anti-rust & corrosion characteristics for enhanced durability.
• 30-way adjustable dampening
• Hard chrome-plated cylinder shaft
• Non-electrolysis Nickel plated shock bodies provide durability in severe weather conditions.
• Pillowball upper mounts optional on certain applications
• Dustboots standard
• 1 year limited warranty
I had to laugh Im sorry you are right obviously but i thought most people would know that 18s can't go on 19s. Boy I needed a laugh today. I am not making fun of anyone!

Look'n good, but I don't understand why your Sol sits up so high. I haven't lowered mine but it appears to sit at least a couple of inches lower.
