That will require rims (and those tire pressure sensors... at $100 per wheel :ph34r:) but a set of black rims would really make that car sing and note to the peanut gallery, black steel rims don't count :P

The trick is to find a dealership that has no clue about the wheel sensors :P Then you can go back and say, "listen, you sold me wheels, and no sensors, you should know better, give me free sensors!".

Worked for me ;)

btw.. you can get the sensors, cradles and bands for < $100/wheel ... I'll see if I can dig up that info again.

And you'll also need a TPMS tool to train the car when you swap your tires (cars have short memories)-- but those can be found cheaply too.

Or you can like the new GTR at nurburgring... they didn't bother with TPMS, and drove with the dummy light lit... then you can claim you're JDM MadTyteYO!
