Just threw them on last night, hosed em down after I drove and will apply wax. These will probably come back off, but they were pretty cheap compared to the last set I had...not too worried about it..thanks for the input

looks nice, but I'm w/ v-tek on the confusion of aftermarket rims in the winter

I'm not gonna say it, but after lookin at all these lowered 7thgens, the ones at stock height look like they're JACKED UP

Man you gotta live each day like its your last...may get hit by a bus tomorrow..want to have enjoyed these wheels/tires...and it doesnt snow salt...just gotta hose em off after driving on roads which were salted...i guess it is all relative though, if you saved up for like 2 years to get your wheels (i'm not saying you did)then you would probably be alot more catious with driving on salted roads...i'm a bit older and the cost of these wheels wasn't too bad...all relative...

Getting a size of 19 inches was a bad choice or the rim manufacture/style was a bad choice for you?

NH is very cheap compared to NJ.. even my insurance rate is $110 a month on full cover with 100/300/300 $500 deduct. Not many people pay this low..

Hello, I might be a ricer in your mind, but I'm not a ricer in my own little world, anyway, so ma riide was lacking some downforce so I decided to put a park bench on the trunk then that was not enough so I decided to buy a bodykit which then I didn't have enough money to paint it, then since I spent all of my savings on essential upgrades I didn't have enough money to buy winter tires for ma ride so I was speeding down the street in the snow with my blingin summer wheels on when I spun out for some strange reasone , did a 360 and hit a car waiting at the light which could've easily been an innocent pedestrian, now I'm sitting on my computer posting retarded comments and not taking some constructive criticism. Who the **** are you to tell me what is right or what is wrong? I own half a business and a house so my brain must work better than yours. Anyway here's a picture o ma riide after the accident, you could see broken fiberglass everywhere which is kinda cool because it looks like the supra in fast and furious when it crashed after jumpin the bridge.



for some strange reasone everyone was looking at me funny at the scene, they'r all ****in idiots anyway. I have a civic now and I'm planing to go the same route with it now and all you idiots could go to hell.
