Free shipping as well! Tires are what kill you though.

they are nice, but would have to be 19s for me. people say they look like evos....in a sense yes, they do because of the overall design, but the mesh piece on these is slightly different, and its a lot more curved out then on evos

Pm me your info as well. Do they make them in 17"s? Probably one of the nicest looking set ups on a budget that isn't a GM copy that I have seen IMHO. Oh yea, how much do they weigh?
