do you want more performance or do you want to dress it up a bit?

I say not really. I put my 18x7.5 rims on it and it handles so nice.

suspension will make it faster... not with hp but if you can get a better launch and go aroung a corner faster, then you are faster!!
Get Tokico Advanced handling kit, 17' rims with ZR rated tires (45 series max) and the car will drive AMAZING!!!
here is a website that has a great price on the kit:

Hope that helps!!
