So long IKON8's!
Stupid things - as soon as I bought them this year (I was one of the first in the GTA to get these things) friggin EVERYONE and his momma got a set. In my work parking lot alone 2 other cars got them. I saw a set on an otherwise-stock Cavalier last week! Bloody hell!
So I dropped them off last night, and then picked up my new rims....bwahahhaaaaaaaa....but for now I'm rolling on stock 1.6EL Premium rims....boooo

I hear ya, I got a deal here too, works out to about that. Still expensive considering I was gettin 17 inch rubber for like 500 Canadian MOUNTED, RETAIL. So i figger I'll just keep savin.
Hey HLM, how's the wear on the tires? Hold up OK? I"M worried about them wearing too quick, especially at over 800 Canadian per set of four.
