New kicks

All right. I finally got my new wheels and tires put on... It was a bit of a hassle, but I'm happy. Yesterday, I got all the way to a really nice location to take some pictures (on the top of a mountain). But, when I got there I realized that I forgot the memory card to my camera....... Haha. Oh well. These will have to do.

And, I know. I know. She's a bit dirty.

I had them rolled before I put them on. I had the stock 18" sport wheels (18x7.5 +45) with some 20mm spacers. It only rubbed under hard cornering (at the track). So, I'm sure these would have rubbed had I not had them rolled. I'll find out this weekend if I need to roll them even more.

There was VERY minor scrapes on them. I just smoothed them out with a dremel and had them powdercoated.

Best thing is, I only have $300 invested in these. That INCLUDES the $225 for powdercoating.
