Wheels are in!

yeah so the ups man stops by knocking on my door like wild and drops off these:




Got them for a deal. Brand new 2 day air shipped to Hawaii for $300

No tires though but i am ordering some 205/50 Kumho Ecsta SPTs from a local shop.


I'll post pics once the wheel and tire combo are on the car.

looking good, and great price. I took a look around the site, but maybe somethings wrong with me, black rims are boring, 5 spokes are five spokes.. 6 spokes are the same as 5 with extra junk... i'm still leaning to gunmetal myself. *sigh* oh its snowing here, maybe thats what has me down. gotta go get gas and food hopefully i dont crash. speaking of crash...rash.. dont mess thoes babies up! you got a deal my partner... geeze, i still cant believe it.

Nice, I got the same ones except in Anthracite. They came with the stupid centre lug cover but no centre cap. Dont put on the lug cover, it just scratches the paint off.

The silver colour looks good, maybe I should have going with silver.

And Im running on 205/50/16 Falken Ze512 and loving it.

Dont forget to post pics when you get them on.
