I like these better than the Evo's. Gives the car a fresher look.

I like them, although I am not sure which ones I like better. What did you end up doing with the other set of rims?

He sold the other ones to fund the purchase of these.

Actually, I sold the other wheels and needed to find a replacement. A member on this board actually PM'd me and asked if the wheels were for sale and if I'd be interested in selling them.

I shot him a price, he accepted, and the rest is history.

I'm just hoping for some decent weather to be able to pull the car out and take some pictures.

Thanks for the compliments on the cleanliness of the car. I try and keep it looking good, which will be easier once I get a lift.

Also, easy to keep it clean when you dont get it out of the garage much jk Although, my car is in the garage and I can't keep it clean. Damn black car.

That plays a huuge factor in keeping it clean. I think I've put 250 miles on it since August 1st when it was inspected, maybe 300.

I'm so eager to drive it, but I hate the sound of the road gravel hitting the car from our beautiful PENN DOT crews. I swear they put down gravel at the first mention of snow in the forecast.

That's quite an interesting signature picture you have between the squished car and the woman on it.... Do you have a larger version?

I know what you mean! I was walking to class today and I looked down at all the salt and rocks, I was thinking this would all be hitting my car right now.

Hell I liked them so much I went and bought a set.

Got them for 700 on ebay.

Question.. Did you have to run spacers at all?? like on the back b/c I know they back wheels are hub mounts.

I didn't run any spacers at all. The wheels I bought were a 45mm backspacing, and tuck up nicely.

I hope you enjoy the wheels Tyler... best of luck with them and I hope you get as many compliments as I did. They should look good on a black t/a.
