I really liked your blue color, but that red is equally nice! was it much body work to remove the side molding w/ the holes and what not?
subscribed to see the end results too

Hey I got the same wheels. What tires you got? I have wanli, don't know if I like them. They are too grip and noisy. I hope the noise goes away after I balance them this weekend.

yes it was alot of body work, they had to spot weld the holes with extra metal pieces and do lots of sanding. thanks for the comment.

Yeah I know it's f^cked up! I picked them up from one guy. I didn't ask if they were balanced. He took em off his car so I tought that they are balanced. When I first mounted on my ride, the filling was pretty bad....lol. I checked the air pressure it was at 36 psi. I reduced it to 34 and finally to 30. At 30 psi it drives ok, more softer now.
Is it ok if my wheels are not balanced for couple of days? I don't take highways on my way to work, but will do balancing this saturday.

balancing isnt a huge deal, it will just make the car vibrate at higher speeds, so keep your speed low and dont drive on the highway. i had a ton of snow in my rims that i couldnt get out so i drove like that for a couple days lol. couldnt really drive above 50 without everything shaking badly. but it wont hurt anything
