Got my wheels finally

I ordered the Ruff 277's for my car over a month ago. The first set that came were the wrong offset. Sent those back and then the second set was just messed up. Two of the wheels had chips in the paint around the rivets and one had a dull finish on it like somebody had cleaned the rim with some kind of chemical and stained the polish. In between all of this it was taking a week to send the wheels each way. I ended up buying some Axis Penta's instead from another place and sent the Ruff's back and got a refund. I took a few quick pics after I put them on so the pics are not that great.

Yeah, put the Eibach Pro's in it about a month ago. If you actually do a search you'll see I was on here complaining about the ride quality after I did it and was ready to put it back to stock. I gave it time before I was going to take them out. It has actually gotten smoother since I first put them in. Believe it or not, it actually rides better with the 19's on it then with the stocks on there. I have the Tokico Dspecs in the garage waiting to go on. Going to try and get to that this weekend.

Looks really nice. Flows seemlessly with the car's color. Excellent choice.

Your G looks very nice--the color, the tint, the full aero, the wheels/tires, the drop. Classy, sporty.

Glad to hear your pro-kit ride is better--man--your whole set up is what the G-sport should have stock!!

So--are you running staggered--what are your tire sizes.?

sorry to hear you had trouble with the Ruffs--was it need for speed?
