Default Got my Cragars!



Ordered them on Friday and they got here yesterday evening, how's that for good service? I got the 18x9's (230 series) from custom wheels market... definately recommend them to anyone who's in the market, very friendly and fast.

When I opened the boxes it was kind of like....

It sucks because I know they'll never look this good again!

I love those wheels but I wish they had a deeper lip.

I thought I did too.. I've always been partial to rather deep lips. When I got these out of the box though I really really like them as they are, but I guess we'll see how I feel about that when they're on the car.

They're 36mm offset.. and chrome (that's all they had them available in, no black).

www.customwheelsmarket.com

They have 18x9's on the site for $306 each with free shipping, but I picked mine up on eBay from them for $749 for the set plus $99 to ship and like I said they were here in no time. I also bought my lug kit from them which was everything (lugs, locks and valve stems) for 24.99 which I thought was a pretty good price.

I talked to a couple guys (Joe was one's name) and they were very helpful and very friendly.. even suggesting tire sizes I should use but not pushing for me to buy from them.
