Talking The sacrificial rubber has been chosen....
Falken's were not my first choice, but could not pass up the price these. Should look pretty good on the new hoops....parked or rollin! And there will be A LOT of rollin....spinnin....whatever




New hoops btw.....

Picked them locally from a guy that changed directions in his wheel choice. Price equivalent to buy-one, get-one....

It's always a good feeling whenever you can find a sweet deal that'll save you a few bucks.

That was how these were originally purchased.

I bought them second handed but only paid $350...FOR THE PAIR - covered shipping, taxes, etc for the original owner. Even if he made a couple bux, so be it. Considering I planned on buying Pilots at $500ea, I'd say it was worth it. Not to mention there will be a little less guilt pouring the torque of my new bullet to these things....

Hey Sean, we've talked online about your headlights.... Decided to do my own.

Car is still a couple months away from any "on ground" pics (see sig ). Lol, if you're interested in lending a helping hand putting it back together, we can post them a little sooner
