Coop,
I paid $475 plus install and ipod cable.... It ran about $700 all together... I have a friend that works for an audio dealer here in KC and I get great prices on electronics... It probably would have cost me around $825 all together if I had not had the hook up

Rick, I don't understand why your not a fan of big wheels.... Don't you have 20's on your car... They are considered "big" by most people's standards. I am not arguing with you, everyone has their own style, I just found that kind of odd.. But thanks for the compliment though, If you ask anyone that I know, they will tell you that this car is like my kid and I treat it accordingly (always washing, waxing, and cleaning every crevice) and treat it with nothing but love.

Dang, thats hot dude. I don't like big wheels either, but you have really pulled the look off. Those wheels are SHARP! They aren't your typical "dubs", which is what I like.

Thanks! I get a lot of compliments on them! Coop- it is not a navi-system... The Kenwood Navi is like $900+ and I have navigation on my phone, so I really did not need the it. Kenwood also has a Blue tooth feature in this line of head units and once again, I chose not to get it because I have a blue tooth mic, so that feature is not necessary. My only suggestion when you look at these head units is really weigh the options of getting the higher priced unit because you can get the features in other devices like I chose to do and still come out cheaper. Hope that helps....

Mike, Actually your youtube video is what inspired me to get my 22's... I actually looked at that very set of ASANTI's at my friend's wheel shop and found out that they were out of my price range...
But I am now glad because both you and I belong to this forum and would have the same wheels....

Oh wow, glad you liked the vid!
I ended up forking up the extra $, simply because I couldn't find ANY rim I liked. All were 22x9.5, or in a RWD offset.
Don't sweat it, it wouldn't matter if you had the same wheels as me, you're nowhere near miami.

yeah i stumbled across mikes video too those rims are nice.. but those Asanti's just cost to much. The DropStars that you have look pretty nice 1BAD06MCSS. Im really considering getting those now (I hate to copy) but thats the look i like. It looks kinda sporty, not too flashy, doesn't look cheap, sits just right, and wheels are perfectly tucked. NICE.
Its now between the dropstars and Ace Executive

here are more pics as asked for... as advertised... Also, if your interested in these exact wheels, they are the Dropstars DS08... They run about $415-$450/wheel... I paid with wheels and tires $2200...I have a friend that owns a wheel and tire shop here in KC, so I got the hook up on the wheels, tires, mounting and balancing (mainly because I did it all myself)... It would normally run an average joe about $2500 to buy them off him.
